Calvo was born in
Madrid. After playing until the age of 22 with modest sides –
Elche CF Ilicitano,
Real Valladolid Promesas,
Villajoyosa CF and
CD Alcoyano – he had his first taste of professional football in the
2007–08 season, with
Segunda División club
Xerez CD. On 13 June 2009, he became an integral part of the
Andalusians' history as he scored the 2–1 winner against
SD Huesca which certified their
first-ever promotion to
La Liga. On 31 January 2010, as Xerez ranked last in the league, Calvo netted twice to help his team to come from behind against
RCD Mallorca at home, in just the second win in 20 games. After
being relegated, he signed a three-year contract with
Udinese Calcio of the
Serie A; on 13 July, however, he was transferred to
Granada CF of the Spanish second division. Calvo started in 15 of the league matches he appeared in his
only season and scored three times, as the club achieved a second consecutive promotion. Still owned by the Italians, he spent
the following campaign also in division two, with
Hércules CF. After his contract with Udinese expired, Calvo joined
UD Almería on 31 August 2012. He played the following years in the
Super League Greece, with
Skoda Xanthi FC. On 25 August 2015, Calvo returned to Spain after agreeing to a one-year deal with
SD Huesca,
newly promoted to the second tier. After representing in quick succession
Cádiz CF,
CF Badalona and
Recreativo de Huelva, he moved to
Indian Super League franchise
Jamshedpur FC on 10 August 2018. In August 2020, following a very brief spell in Malta with
Sliema Wanderers FC, the 35-year-old Calvo returned to Xerez, now in the
Tercera División. ==References==
