Giacomo Beretta (born 14 March 1992) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a forward for club Pro Patria.

Club career

Early years

Beretta joined AC Milan in the summer of 2009, in a co-ownership deal with his former club AlbinoLeffe for €900,000.[1] [2] He spent the season playing for Milan's under-20 side, who won the Coppa Italia Primavera 25 years after the team's last success in the competition,[3] although he missed several games throughout the year due to injury.[4]

AC Milan (2010–11)

At the beginning of the 2010–11 season, Beretta's playing rights were fully purchased by AC Milan for a fee of €1M.[5] [6] However, half of them were subsequently sold for €4M to Genoa in a new co-ownership deal on 23 August,[6] with Milan keeping the actual use of the player for the season thanks to a loan deal.[6] [7] The then 18-year-old forward kept playing for the under-20 team, but also made his official first team debut on 1 May 2011, in a Serie A game against Bologna.[8]

Ascoli and Juve Stabia (2011–12)

For the 2011–12 season, Beretta's co-ownership between Milan and Genoa was renewed,[9] but he was loaned out to Serie B side Ascoli.[10] Beretta made up a total of 15 appearances (13 in the league and two in 2011–12 Coppa Italia) and one goal, before moving to Juve Stabia during the January transfer window.[11]

Pavia (2012–13)

For the 2012–13 season Beretta was loaned out to Prima Divisione club Pavia.[12]

Lecce (2013–14)

At the start of the 2013–14 campaign, Milan bought back Beretta for €2 million.[13] [14] However, he was loaned out to Lega Pro Prima Divisione club Lecce.[15]

Pro Vercelli (2014–2016)

For the 2014–15 season he was loaned out again, this time to Pro Vercelli.[16] The deal was renewed for one more season in July 2015.[17]

Virtus Entella (2016–17)

On 24 August 2016 Beretta joined Virtus Entella in another loan.[18]

Foggia

On 26 July 2017 Serie B Foggia signed Beretta from Milan in a definitive deal on a two-year player contract.[19]

Return to Ascoli

On 21 July 2018, he returned to Ascoli, signing a 3-year contract.[20] On 2 October 2020 his contract was terminated by mutual consent.[21]

Padova

On 22 October 2020 he signed with Serie C side Padova.[22]

Cittadella

On 1 February 2021 he moved to Serie B club Cittadella.[23]

Return to Foggia

On 13 January 2023, Beretta signed a 2.5-year contract with Foggia.[24] On 18 January 2024, he was loaned to Serie B club Lecco, with an option to buy.[25] On 22 July 2024, his contract with Foggia was terminated by mutual consent.[26]

International career

Beretta won 15 caps and scored 10 goals for Italy U-17 in 2009.[27] He scored 3 goals in all 3 matches of 2009 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship elite qualification. In the final tournament he scored once in 4 appearances. He was also part of the squad that took part in the 2009 FIFA U-17 World Cup, making 4 appearances and scoring a goal in the tournament (against United States).[28]

Beretta went on to be capped for Italy U-19, winning 7 caps and scoring one goal between 2010 and 2011,[27] as well as featuring in 15 games for the U-20 side from 2010 to 2014.[27]
