Giovane was first called up to represent his country in February 2018 for the Under-15 squad friendlies.[7]

He then represented Italy at the 2019 UEFA European Under-17 Championship where they reached the final,[8] 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup[9] and the 2022 UEFA European Under-19 Championship, where Giovane was team's captain as Italy reached the semi-final.[10]

In May 2023, he was included in the Italian squad that took part in the FIFA U-20 World Cup in Argentina,[11] where the Azzurrini finished runners-up after losing to Uruguay in the final match.[12][13]
