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]

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]

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