Career

Parano's early youth career included a spell with one of Barcelona's affiliate clubs in Buenos Aires from the age of nine, prior to the midfielder signing with Boca Juniors' academy in 2010.[5] Four years later, he switched to rivals River Plate.[5] In 2017, Parano moved to San Martín.[1] His professional debut arrived on 4 May 2018 during a Primera División home defeat to Vélez Sarsfield, he had previously been an unused substitute for a fixture with Olimpo in April.[4][6] On 31 January 2019, following a successful trial, Parano joined USL Championship side San Antonio FC.[5] His first senior goal came on 21 June in a loss at Chukchansi Park versus Fresno FC.[4][2]

Parano scored a brace in USL over Reno 1868 on 10 August in a win away from home; for which he was voted as the league's Player of the Week.[7][8][9] He netted his fifth goal of the campaign on 17 August, in what was his first South Texas Derby at home against Rio Grande Valley FC Toros.[4] A week later, Parano scored two further goals - and got two assists - in a 5–0 win over New Mexico United; the club's biggest victory at that time.[10] That performance won him the Player of the Week award, which he won for the second time in three weeks.[11][12] He lost to Solomon Asante for the USL Player of the Month award for August; despite topping the fan vote.[13][14]
