Born in Reggio Emilia, Galuppo started his professional career at Emilian club Parma F.C.
In June 2010, few days before the closure of the 2009–10 financial year, he was exchanged with Milan Đurić in co-ownership deal.
[nb 1] Galuppo left for Atletico Roma on 31 August 2010, re-joining other Parma teammate in a temporary deal in 2010–11 season.
In June 2012, Parma made swap deals with other clubs again, which saw Manuel Coppola (€1.6 million), Galuppo (€1.7M), Abdou Doumbia (€0.5M) and Dellafiore (€1.8M) moved to Siena; Andrea Rossi (€1.8M), Alessandro Iacobucci (€1.7M), Gonçalo Brandão (€1.6M) and Giuseppe Pacini (€0.5M) to Parma.
The move meant Parma did not have any cost generated from Galuppo in the 2011–12 financial year as the amortization of his transfer fee was totally outweighed by the profit.
