Career

Merlano began his career within the Juventus F.C. youth set-up, and graduated the Primavera squad in 2008. Merlano was the understudy of Matteo Trini in 2006–07 season. Merlano became the first choice of the "spring" in 2007–08. Merlano was loaned out to A.S. Melfi for the 2008–2009 campaign, where he made 16 first team appearances. He returned to Juventus in the summer of 2009, only to be loaned out to F.C. Canavese for the 2009–2010 season. He spent much of the season as a second choice keeper, playing behind fellow Juventus loaner, Andrea Pozzato. With Canavese, Merlano did manage 4 league appearances. He officially returned to Juventus on 1 July 2010, following the expiration of his loan deal with Canavese.

In July 2010 he was sold to Lega Pro Prima Divisione side F.C. Esperia Viareggio[2][3] in co-ownership deal. He was the understudy of fellow Juventus youth product Carlo Pinsoglio, played 10 times in the league and 5 times in the cup.[4][5][6][7][8]

In June 2011 Juventus gave up the remain 50% registration rights to Viareggio. On 20 July 2012 Merlano was signed by F.C. Treviso.[9]
