Early years[edit]

Maglio began learning to skate in 2007.[2]

He skated four seasons with Giulia Papa. The two made their international debut in February 2018, appearing in junior pairs at the Ice Mall Cup.[3] Their other international appearances were also as juniors.

Papa/Maglio moved up to seniors for their fourth and final season as a pair but did not compete internationally. They finished fourth at the Italian Championships in December 2020.[4][5]

2021–22 season: Debut of Caldara/Maglio[edit]

Maglio began competing in partnership with Irma Caldara. The two placed tenth at their first international event, the Lombardia Trophy in September 2021, and fourteenth at the 2021 CS Golden Spin of Zagreb in December. In January, they took bronze at the Icelab International Cup before winning the Bavarian Open.[6]

2022–23 season[edit]

Caldara/Maglio won silver at the Lombardia Trophy in September and gold at the Trophée Métropole Nice Côte d'Azur in October. They were assigned to make their Grand Prix debut and finished in fifth place at the 2022 MK John Wilson Trophy.[6] Caldara/Maglio then finished fourth at the 2022 NHK Trophy, 11.42 points back of bronze medalists McIntosh/Mimar of Canada.[7]

Beginning the season at the 2023 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, Caldara/Maglio came tenth.[6] They were eighth at the 2023 CS Finlandia Trophy.[8] Invited to one Grand Prix event, they finished sixth at the 2023 Skate America.[9]
