He was runner up in the 2013 Copa MX, where they lost to Cruz Azul. Later that year, he joined Cruz Azul.

International career

Mexico

Amione was part of the under-23 side, in which Mexico captured its gold medal in 2011 Pan American Games. He also appeared in the 2012 CONCACAF Men's Olympic Qualifying Tournament, however he was not included in the final 18 squad to participate in the 2012 Olympic football tournament. Mexico later won its first ever gold medal in their history. Amione scored four goals in 11 appearances for the Olympic team.

Lebanon

Due to not being further selected into the main squad of Mexico, speculation emerged that he had opted to join the Lebanese national team. The rumours were confirmed when he accepted the offer to play for Lebanon. On 18 December 2018, FIFA refused the Lebanese Football Association's request of changing Amione's national team from Mexico to Lebanon on the basis that "at the time of his first appearance [...] for Mexico, he did not yet hold the Lebanese nationality", a prerequisite necessary for changing national teams.
