Club career[edit]

Early career[edit]

Calvano joined AC Milan from Atalanta in January 2010.[1] He spent two seasons and a half in the club's under-20 team, being part of the squad who won the Coppa Italia Primavera in 2010, 25 years after the team's last success in the competition.[2]

Calvano made his official debut for the first team on 26 January 2012, coming on as a substitute in a Coppa Italia quarter-finals game against Lazio, which Milan won 3–1.[3]

At the beginning of the 2012–13 season, Calvano was signed by Serie B club Hellas Verona on a loan deal with an option for the co-ownership.[4] During the January transfer window, Verona redeemed the player's co-ownership and sent him on loan to Prima Divisione club San Marino for the remainder of the season.[5]

On 12 January 2019, he joined Padova on loan.[6]

On 26 August 2019, he joined Juve Stabia on loan with an option to buy.[7]

On 5 October 2020 he signed a two-year contract with Serie C club Triestina.[8]

On 11 August 2022, Calvano moved to Pro Vercelli on a two-year deal.[9]

On 27 July 2023, Calvano signed a two-year contract with Taranto.[10]
