Biography

edit

Born in Cantù, Lombardy, Cappelletti started his career at Como[1] and then Cantù San Paolo. In January 2009 he was signed by Sicily club Palermo. He was a regular member of Primavera under-20 team in 2009–10 season.

In August 2010 he left for Serie B club Padova[2] along with Davide Succi, with option to buy half of the registration rights for €400,000 and €500,000 respectively.[3] Cappelletti made his debut on 2 October, replacing José Ángel Crespo at half time.[4] That season he played 3 games in the Italian second division, substituted Crespo twice[4][5] and left-back Trevor Trevisan once.[6] He made his only start in 2010–11 Coppa Italia.[7] That match Padova used a 3–4–3 formation and he was one of the 3 defenders.

On 1 July 2011, he left for another second division club Sassuolo along with Karim Laribi.[8][9] However, he did not play any match for the first match but played for Sassuolo's Primavera (literally "Spring") team as overage player. On 5 January 2012, he moved to fellow second division club Juve Stabia.[10]

On 13 July 2012, Palermo agreed a loan deal with Lega Pro Prima Divisione club South Tyrol, where he was a centre-back.[11] On 11 July the temporary deal was renewed.[12]

On 4 July 2019, he signed a 2-year contract with Vicenza.[13]

On 2 September 2023, Cappelletti moved to Brindisi on a two-year contract.[14]

On 1 February 2024, Cappelletti moved to Trento until the end of the 2023–24 season.[15]

Representative team

edit

Cappelletti was selected by Lombardy regional "student" team for 2007 Coppa Nazionale Primavera, a tournament compete by representative teams of Italian regions.[16] The team finished as the second in the Group 3 and eliminated.[17] He did not get any international caps until spotted by Italy under-21 Serie B representative team in 2011, where he played as a left-back against Serbian First League Selection twice[18][19][20] and Russian First League Selection once.[21]
