He had a impressive season in Skovshoved, which was noticed by Bo Henriksen, who decided to bring him to Danish Superliga club AC Horsens in July 2018 on a six-months contract.[4] Three months later, the deal was extended until the summer 2022.[5] On 19 December 2019, it was confirmed that his contract had been terminated.[6]

After only one season at Hvidovre, Avanzini moved to Hobro IK on 13 July 2021, signing a deal until June 2024.[10] His contract was terminated by mutual consent on 10 October 2022, making him a free agent.[11]
