In January 2010 Caroppo left for the reserve of Palermo on a free loan, with option to co-own the player for €500,000.[3] He played 9 games in half-season and all 3 games in the playoffs, ahead Francesco Di Gregorio. The club was eliminated in the quarter-finals in the playoffs round of the reserve league. At the end of season Caroppo returned to Brescia.
