# Toni Calvo

Antonio "Toni" Calvo Arandes (born 28 March 1987) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a winger for FC Santboià.
He spent the better part of his career with Aris (Greece) and Anorthosis (Cyprus).

## Club career
### Barcelona / Aris

Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Calvo joined FC Barcelona's La Masia academy at the age of 12. He made his senior debut in the 2006–07 season, totalling 385 minutes of play (only one start) as the reserves suffered relegation from the Segunda División B.
Calvo signed with Greek side Aris Thessaloniki F.C. in summer 2007, agreeing to a three-year contract and reuniting with Barcelona teammate Javito (and several others overall, including manager Quique Hernández). On 29 November, he scored in a 1–1 away draw against Bolton Wanderers in the group stage of the UEFA Cup.
In August 2009, Calvo renewed his contract with the Thessaloniki club for a further two years. He netted six times across all competitions during that season, five in the Superleague and one in the cup, as the team finished fifth in the former competition.

### Parma / Bulgaria

On 27 December 2010, Parma F.C. confirmed Calvo had joined on loan until the end of the campaign. He made his Serie A debut on 6 January of the following year in a 4–1 win at Juventus FC where he came on as a substitute for Sebastian Giovinco, but only collected two further league appearances during his spell.
On 18 July 2011, Calvo moved to PFC Levski Sofia from Bulgaria on a one-year deal. He made his competitive debut on 4 August, in the Europa League qualifying round 2–1 defeat of FC Spartak Trnava, and first appeared in the league four days later, setting up the winning goal for Ivan Tsvetkov in a 1–0 home victory over PFC Slavia Sofia; he scored his first goal for the club on 21 October, in a 3–2 win against PFC Kaliakra Kavarna.

### Anorthosis

In July 2012, Calvo moved to the Cypriot First Division with Anorthosis Famagusta F.C., requesting to be released at the end of the season due to the fact he was the player with the highest salary on the team and the club was facing economic problems. President Savvas Kakos obliged, but the player eventually returned for the following campaign with a much revised contract.

### Later years

On 6 July 2016, Calvo returned to Greece and its top level by agreeing to a one-year deal with Veria F.C. for an undisclosed fee. He took his game to the Catalan regional leagues in 2018 and, the following year, had a failed trial at Niki Volou FC.

## International career

Overall, Calvo earned 16 caps for Spain at youth level. He represented the under-20 team at the 2007 FIFA World Cup in Canada, playing four times for the quarter-finalists.
