Career Giovanni Piccolomo was on the squad of Corinthians in the 2012 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior. He was also part of the squad who won the 2012 FIFA Club World Cup and 2013 Campeonato Paulista. Whilst under contract with Corinthians, he was loaned out several times. Firstly, to Ponte Preta in June 2013 for 2013 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B. Then to Portuguesa in 2014 for 2014 Campeonato Paulista, where he stayed only two months before returning to Corinthians.

He played in six of the second phase games, scoring twice, helping São Bento gain promotion and agreeing to stay at the club in 2017.
In May 2017, Giovanni Piccolomo joined Náutico to play in 2017 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B. After playing 21 times he asked for contract to be terminated. According to his manager this was due to personal problems, but Giovanni himself blamed lack of payment of wages.
