Career[]

Early 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]

San Antonio FC[]

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 Player of the Month award for August; despite topping the fan vote.[13][14]

Fresh from winning the league's 2019 Young Player of the Year award, Parano began the subsequent season with a goal on matchday one against rivals Rio Grande Valley FC Toros.[4][15][16] He ended the campaign with four goals in fifteen matches as they reached the play-offs; losing out to New Mexico United in the opening round.[4]

Paços de Ferreira[]

On 5 January 2021, Parano completed a move to Portuguese football with Primeira Liga side Paços de Ferreira; penning a three-and-a-half year contract.[17]
