Club career

Born in Castelfranco Veneto, Liviero began his career within the youth sector of Juventus. He began to earn call-ups to the senior squad during the 2010–11 season under then-Juventus manager Luigi Delneri. He made his professional debut for Juventus in the 2010–11 UEFA Europa League, in a match against Austrian team Red Bull Salzburg on 4 November 2010.[1]

After graduating from the Primavera squad in June 2012, Liviero was sent on loan to Perugia in the Lega Pro Prima Divisione in order to gain first-team experience along with fellow Juventus youth-teammate, Carlos García.[2] He spent further loan spells at Carpi, Juve Stabia, Pro Vercelli[3] and Lecce. He also signed a new 2-year contract with Juve in 2014.[4]

On 4 July 2016 Liviero was signed by Juve Stabia.[5][6] He moved to Cittadella in January 2018.[7] In his very first game for Cittadella he suffered a fibula fracture,[8] missed most of the remainder of the season and his contract was allowed to lapse after the season ended.

On 31 January 2019, he signed with Fano.[9]

On 1 August 2019, he joined Vicenza.[10]

On 28 January 2021 he moved to Monopoli.[11]

On 16 August 2021 he signed a one-year deal with Imolese.[12]

On 11 August 2022, Liviero moved to Torres.[13]
