Biography

Early career

Born in Cigliano, Piedmont, Germano was signed by Canavese from BarcanovaSalus in 2007.[3] On 31 July 2008 he was signed by Juventus F.C. in a definitive deal.[4] He was the member of the under-17 football team in 2008–09 season.[5] In the next season he was a member of the reserve B - Berretti.[6][7] He was a player for Juve in 2010 Dossena Trophy,[8] scoring once against Cremonese.[9] Germano also played for reserve A occasionally.[10]

Germano was a player for Canavese in 2010–11 Lega Pro Seconda Divisione, as well as for their reserve team.[11] He also returned to Juventus "Primavera" reserve team in May 2011.[12]

Pro Vercelli

In July 2011 Germano was signed by another Piedmontese club Pro Vercelli.[13] The club won the playoffs of 2011–12 Lega Pro Prima Divisione and promoted to Serie B after half a century wait. He also played once for the representative team of Lega Pro against San Marino in June 2012.[2] Pro Vercelli finished as the 21st of 2012–13 Serie B and relegated back to the third division. On 24 August 2013 Germano was signed by Lanciano in a temporary deal, fellow Serie B struggler of last season which finished just above the relegated teams as the 18th.
