He began his career with the Rondinelle and debuted in Serie A on November 8 1992 in the game against Ancona. Brescia were relegated but the following year got promoted again and Piovanelli made 30 league appearances. Back in Serie A, he suffered a severe injury which allowed him to play very little. At the end of the season and with Brescia back in Serie B, he signed for Lazio.


With the Biancocelesti he never managed to become a regular in the starting eleven. Under Zdeneck Zeman, he made 37 appearances in two years. In 1997 he signed for Piacenza but played very little. The next season he was at Genoa but after just six months he moved to Verona and with his 10 appearances contributed to the club’s promotion. But back in Serie A he never played and in the winter transfer window was sold to Cesena but the club was relegated to Serie C1. The next season he was at Cittadella on loan but played just 4 games. After a year at Pistoia in Serie B, he played in Serie C1 and C2 with Carrarese, Pro Patria and Monza. He finished his career playing at amateur level for a few years.


After he retired he went into coaching and was manager for some minor teams.


Piovanelli had a promising career ahead of him, as demonstrated by his one cap with Italy Under 21's and Zeman choosing him to play for Lazio, but did not fulfill expectations.
