Born in Civitanova Marche, Pacini started his career at Marina Picena, Porto Sant'Elpidio. In 2007, he was selected to Marche Giovanissimi U15 Representative Team for Coppa Nazionale Primavera.

It saw Pacini along with reserve teammate Alessandro Iacobucci and first teamer Andrea Rossi and Gonçalo Brandão were exchanged with Abdou Doumbia, Alberto Galuppo, Manuel Coppola and Paolo Dellafiore. Pacini signed a 5-year contract. Pacini's loan was also renewed and Parma (along with Ascoli) also loaned Tamási and Palumbo (Cesena–Parma) to Fondi. In June 2014 the co-ownership deal were renewed, with Brandão and Galuppo returned to their mother clubs.
