Club career

Spain

Born in Los Barrios, Cádiz, Andalusia, Pirulo joined Espanyol's youth setup in January 2009, after refusing to train with his previous club, Cádiz. He made his senior debut for the former's reserves in 2011, in Tercera División.

On 8 July 2012 Pirulo signed for another reserve team, Atlético Malagueño also in the fourth tier. The following year he moved to Segunda División B club L'Hospitalet, scoring six goals in 30 appearances as his side missed out promotion in the play-offs.

On 30 June 2014, Pirulo returned to the Pericos and its B-team, now in the third division. On 14 July 2015, he joined fellow league team Sabadell.

Senica

In July 2016, Pirulo signed a contract with Fortuna Liga club Senica, after impressing on a trial basis. He made his professional debut on 16 July, starting in a 0–1 home loss against Slovan Bratislava.

Cherno More

On 6 February 2017, Pirulo joined Bulgarian club Cherno More. He made his debut against CSKA Sofia in a 0–2 home defeat on 19 February. On 19 March 2017, Pirulo scored his first and only goal in a 3–1 away win over Neftochimic Burgas. On 29 May 2017, his contract was terminated by mutual consent.
