Club career

Born in Calcinate, the Province of Bergamo, Facchinetti started his career with hometown club Atalanta. He graduated from the Primavera under-19 team in 2003. [1] He then left Atalanta and started his professional career with Serie C2 side Montichiari in 2004. He scored 10 league goals in 2005–06 Serie C2 season, ⅓ of the team scored. He then signed by Serie B side Genoa in 5-year deal on free transfer [2] but left for Serie C1 side Padova along with Michele Tarallo. [3] [4] He was ruled out in January 2007. [5] In July 2007 he left for Padova's league rival Pro Sesto along with Rodrigue Boisfer from Genoa, now promoted to Serie A. [6] In July 2008, he remained at Lega Pro Prima Divisione (ex-Serie C1) Group A, but for Pergocrema along with Tarallo and Danilo Russo. [7] [8]

In 2009–10 season, Genoa failed to find a club for Facchinetti, made him "without" a club for a season, but costed Genoa €5,200 as amortization [9] and wage. On 16 July 2010, newly promoted Lega Pro Seconda Divisione side Savona signed him from Genoa on free transfer. [10] [11] Later Tarallo also joined him on 23 July.

International career

Pederzoli capped for Italy at 2001 UEFA European Under-16 Football Championship, lost to Spain in quarter-final, eventually Spain was the champion. In that match, he replaced Alex Pederzoli in the 35th minute. He partnered with Atalanta's team-mate Giampaolo Pazzini in the attack. That match the coach filled 5 defenders (Giorgio Chiellini as wing-back) and 1 strikers at the starting XI (541 or 451). He also started the first 2 matches in the Group stage, but in the third match the coach preferred Luigi Della Rocca to partner with Pazzini. The Azzurrini's starting XI also filled with team-mate Mauro Belotti and Gabriele Perico. Italy lost 3–4 in penalty shootout.

In 2005, he was called to Italy U21 B team (specially for 2005 Mediterranean Games), against Serie D Best XI. [12] He played his only match with the team against Morocco. [13]

In 2012, he moved to "eccellenza" side Caravaggio, with whom he won the championship.
