He would eventually go on to make an additional 12 appearances throughout the 2011–12 Serie A season, before being loaned to Calcio Catania in June 2012. He has made 11 appearances in all competitions for the club since his arrival, generally serving as a reserver for the likes of Sergio Almirón, Francesco Lodi, and Marco Biagianti.
