Club career

Valente started his career with Serie D club Legnago, with whom he played five seasons as an amateur from 2010 to 2015. In 2015, he moved to Serie C club Pordenone, with whom he made his debut as a professional player.

On 13 August 2020 he joined Palermo. [3] With the Sicilians, he immediately took on a leading role, being a regular in both Serie C seasons, the last of which culminating with promotion to Serie B. He subsequently agreed to extend his contract with Palermo for one more season, thus ensuring himself the opportunity to debut in the Italian second division at 30.

In March 2023, after another season as a regular for the Rosanero on his Serie B debut, Valente agreed upon another one-year contract extension with Palermo. [4]

On 1 February 2024, Valente left Palermo to join Serie C club Padova. [5] He signed a contract with Padova until 30 June 2026. [6]
