Career
Adelaide United
On 23 August 2018, Armiento signed his first professional contract with Adelaide United, penning a two-year scholarship deal with the club.[1] He made his professional debut in a Round 7 clash with Melbourne Victory, replacing Apostolos Stamatelopoulos in the 80th minute as the Reds were defeated 2–0 at AAMI Park.[2] Armiento was released on 12 December 2019.[3]
Perth Glory
Carlo was announced as a Perth Glory player on 5 February 2020, having been signed as a free agent following his release from Adelaide.
He first appeared with Perth in their quarter-final clash against Wellington Phoenix which Glory won 2-0 as an unused substitute, and again four days later against Sydney FC as they lost the match 2-0, once again not coming off the bench.
Armiento got his first minutes of football for Glory on 30 November 2020 after coming on as a substitute against Shanghai Shenhua in their Asian Champions League campaign in the 57th minute, and marked his debut by scoring a free-kick in a game which ended 3-3.
On 20 January 2021, Armiento made his A-League debut for the Glory in their first game of the season, coming on as a substitute in the sixty-ninth minute. He scored his first A-League goal from close range to make the score 5-1 to Perth against Adelaide United, his former club; the match resulted in a 5-3 win for Perth.
