Professional career

On 18 August 2017, Arigoni signed a professional contract with Grasshopper. [2] Arigoni made his professional debut for Grasshopper in a 1-0 Swiss Super League win over FC Zürich on 25 February 2018. [3] He stayed with the club following their relegation in 2019 and was instrumental to the club achieving promotion back to the top flight in 2021.

Back in the Swiss Super League, he was one of the few players who remained in the starting lineup from their promotion season. Despite this, following the 2021-22 season, he chose to not renew his contract with Grasshoppers. [4] On 22 June 2022, he returned to his native Ticino, signing a three-year contract with cup champions FC Lugano. [5]

Arigoni signed on a season-loan with Major League Soccer side Chicago Fire on 15 January 2024. [6] He played 28 games in the regular season and scored one goal. The club did not qualify for the playoffs, and Chicago Fire announced on 22 October 2024 that they would not activate his option. [7] He will thus return to Lugano on 1 January 2025.

International career

Arigoni was born in Zürich, Switzerland to a Swiss father from Ticino, and a Jamaican mother. [8] He is a youth international for Switzerland.
