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]
