Early life

Aramu was born to a father from Turin and a mother from Como, and his paternal grandfather was of Sardinian origin.[1]

Club career

Early career

Aramu began his career with amateur club A.S.D. Real Leini. At only eight years old he was noticed by former Torino players Antonio Comi and Silvano Benedetti and joined the Torino youth.[2] In 2013–14 he was one of the stars of the Primavera side of Moreno Longo that reached the finals of the tournament, lost on penalties to Chievo Verona.[2] He finished the season with 20 goals scored between the league and cup (with two fundamental goals scored in the final phase of the tournament against Lazio).[2] Throughout the season he was regularly called up to the first team by coach Giampiero Ventura.[2]

Loan to Trapani

In the 2014–15 season Aramu joined Trapani on loan. He made his debut on 30 August 2014 against Pescara in a Serie B game. He replaced Giovanni Abate after 53 minutes.[3] He scored his first goal in Serie B on 1 November 2014, deciding the match against Brescia, 3–2.[4]

Loan to Livorno

On 5 August 2015, Aramu was loaned to Livorno. He scored his first goal for Livorno against Ternana, then scored two braces against Ascoli and Lanciano at the end of the season that were not enough for Livorno to avoid relegation to Lega Pro.

Torino

Aramu made his official debut for Torino on 14 August 2016 in the third round of Coppa Italia against Pro Vercelli, entering as a substitute for Adem Ljajic in the 87th minute.[5]

Venezia

On 10 July 2019, Aramu signed a three-year contract with Venezia.[6]

Genoa

On 25 August 2022, Venezia reached agreement with Genoa under which Aramu moved to Genoa on loan with a subsequent obligation to buy, and Antonio Candela and cash moved in the opposite direction.[7]

Bari

On 1 September 2023, Aramu moved to Bari on loan. Bari holds an obligation to sign him permanently in case of promotion to Serie A.[8]

International career

On 5 August 2015 he was called up to Italy under-21 team by Luigi Di Biagio for the first friendly of the new biennium to be played on 12 August in Telki against Hungary.[9]
