Orlando Urbano (born 9 June 1984) is an Italian football (soccer) player who currently plays for Como, in the Italian Lega Pro Prima Divisione.

Club career

Juventus

Urbano started his career with Italian Juventus FC youth ranks.^[1] In 2004 he graduated from the Juventus youth system along with several other future prospects. For the first half of the 2004-2005 season, Juventus loaned the 19 year-old Urbano out to Reggiana, in the Italian third division, in order for him to gain experience at a professional level. With Reggiana, he managed 7 appearances as a center defender, his natural position. For the next six-months of the 04-05 season, Juventus loaned him out to Pavia, where he would account for nine total appearances. He would then join Torres, where he did not manage a single start, and thus was re-called to Juve and loaned back out, but this time to Catanzaro. He would make 13 total appearances for the Catanzaro based club.

The following season, he returned to Juventus, but in an entire season, made not a single appearance and due to poor performances and lack of experience, Juventus terminated the 23 year-old's contract. He was signed on a free transfer for the 2007-2008 season by Serie C1 side Potenza S.C..

Pro Patria

He then transferred to Pro Patria for the 2008-2009 season and would help them to promotion playoffs in the Serie C1 by finishing second. Pro Patria will however remain in Serie C1, due to their loss in the promotion playoff final.

Vicenza

In the summer of 2009, he transferred from Pro Patria to Serie B side Vicenza Calcio,^[2] after an impressive 2008-2009 Lega Pro Prima Divisione season. he had limited change in Vicenza and left for Perugia along with team-mate Giampietro Perrulli and Filippo Forò.^[3]
