Club career[edit]
Spain[edit]
Born in Los Barrios, Cádiz, Andalusia, Pirulo joined Espanyol's youth setup in January 2009, after refusing to train with his previous club, Cádiz.[2][3] He made his senior debut for the former's reserves in 2011, in Tercera División.
On 8 July 2012 Pirulo signed for another reserve team, Atlético Malagueño also in the fourth tier.[4] The following year he moved to Segunda División B club L'Hospitalet,[5] scoring six goals in 30 appearances as his side missed out promotion in the play-offs.
On 30 June 2014 Pirulo returned to the Pericos and its B-team, now in the third division.[6] On 14 July 2015, he joined fellow league team Sabadell.[7]
Senica[edit]
In July 2016, Pirulo signed a contract with Fortuna Liga club Senica, after impressing on a trial basis.[8] He made his professional debut on 16 July, starting in a 0–1 home loss against Slovan Bratislava.[9]
Cherno More[edit]
On 6 February 2017, Pirulo joined Bulgarian club Cherno More.[10] He made his debut against CSKA Sofia in a 0–2 home defeat on 19 February.[11] On 19 March 2017, Pirulo scored his first and only goal in a 3–1 away win over Neftochimic Burgas.[12] On 29 May 2017, his contract was terminated by mutual consent.[13]
