Andrea Schenetti (born 9 March 1991) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Serie C Group C club Foggia.

Club career[edit]

Early career[edit]

Born in Milan, Schenetti started playing football with amateur football academy Olmi, before joining A.C. Milan in 2001.[1] He spent nine seasons in the club's youth system and was a member of both the under-19 squad who won the Campionato Berretti in 2009,[2] and the under-20 side who triumphed in the Coppa Italia Primavera in 2010, 25 years after the team's last success in the competition.[3]

Lucchese and Prato[edit]

At the beginning of the 2010–11 season, Schenetti was loaned out to Prima Divisione club Lucchese.[4] Nevertheless, in the last week of August he suffered a calf injury,[5] which prevented him to play for 45 days.[6] The 19-year-old striker eventually made his official debut for the club on 17 November 2010, in a group stage game of the Coppa Italia Lega Pro against Carpi; he played 70 minutes and also scored the opener, before the opponents fought back in the second half to earn a 2–1 win.[7] On 5 December, Schenetti made his league debut, coming on in the 75th minute of a 0–0 draw against Juve Stabia.[8] That game, however, marked his last appearance for the club, as his loan spell was terminated on 26 January 2011, due to lack of playing time.[9][10]

Subsequently, Schenetti was sent out on another loan deal to Seconda Divisione club Prato for the remainder of the season.[11] He made 10 league appearances and scored one goal, as the team finished third in the table and qualified for the promotion play-offs, where he made four further appearances and scored two more goals. However, they lost the final 2–1 on aggregate to Carrarese.

Südtirol[edit]

For the 2011–12 season, Schenetti joined Prima Divisione side Südtirol on another loan deal.[12]

Sorrento[edit]

On 31 August 2012, Schenetti moved to Prima Divisione club Sorrento for an undisclosed fee, signing a two-year deal.[13]

Entella[edit]

On 9 August 2019, he joined Entella.[14]

Foggia[edit]

On 2 August 2022, Schenetti signed a two-year contract with Foggia.[15]

Style of play[edit]

Due to his fast pace, Schenetti usually plays as a winger in a 4–3–3 formation, but he has also been employed as a striker, alongside a more physical forward.[16]
