Biography

Pro Vercelli

Born in Pinerolo, in the Province of Turin (now part of the Metropolitan City of Turin), Piedmont, Bunino started his career at Piedmontese club Pro Vercelli. He made his Serie B debut in the last round of the 2012–13 Serie B season. Bunino was brought on for substitute Antonio Romano.[2] Vercelli were relegated from Serie B that season, after finishing third from bottom in Group A of the Allievi league.[3]

During the 2013–14 season, his team finished as the winners of Group A in the Berretti reserve league. However, the team was eliminated by Südtirol in the first round of the play-offs.

Bunino played three more Serie B games for the first team in the first half of the 2014–15 Serie B season.

Juventus

On 2 February 2015, Turin-based Serie A giants Juventus, signed Bunino for €1.75 million on a 4½ year contract in a straight swap deal involving: Luca Castiglia (for €1.5 million) plus Giuseppe Ruggiero (for €250,000).[4][5] Bunino was immediately loaned back to Vercelli on a temporary deal for 1½ seasons.[4]

Pro Vercelli (loan)

Since returning to Pro Vercelli on 2 February 2015, Bunino made just a single appearance during the 2014–15 Serie B campaign. He scored 10 goals for the reserve team that season, and was Pro Vercelli's top-scorer and ninth best in the Primavera reserve league.[6]

He played once for Pro Vercelli in the 2015–16 season in the Coppa Italia.

Livorno (loan)

On 31 August 2015, Bunino and Cristian Pasquato were signed by Serie B club Livorno on temporary deals,[7] rejoining Juventus team-mate Carlo Pinsoglio and Andrea Schiavone. Pro Vercelli also acquired Fausto Rossi from Juventus as a replacement.
