Club career

Born in Candelaria, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Giovanni joined CD Tenerife's youth setup in 2009, aged 11.[1] He made his senior debut with the reserves on 23 December 2015, starting in a 0–1 Tercera División away loss against rivals UD Las Palmas Atlético.[2]

On 3 January 2016 Giovanni scored his first senior goals, netting a brace in a 4–1 home rout of CD El Cotillo.[3] On 20 November he made his professional debut, coming on as a late substitute for goalscorer Amath Ndiaye in a 2–1 home win against UCAM Murcia CF for the Segunda División championship.[4]

On 11 January 2019, after falling out of favour at Tenerife, Giovanni joined Gibraltar Premier Division side Lincoln Red Imps on loan for the remainder of the season.[5] He scored a hat-trick on his debut for the Imps as his side ran out 5-1 winners against rivals Gibraltar United.[6]

gollark: Maybe *I* should make a C compiler.
gollark: This is a reasonable and correct unit.
