Biography

edit

Born in Codogno, Lombardy, Baraldo started his career with Emilian club Piacenza, about 14 km away from his hometown. Baraldo was the member of Italy under-17 team at 2009 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship. He left the reserve of Piacenza on 15 August 2010, for 2010–11 Lega Pro Prima Divisione club Barletta.[4] Baraldo played 4 time for the Apulia-based club: twice in the league as the substitutes of D'Allocco[5] and Anselmi respectively;[6] Baraldo was the starting fullback for the club in 2010–11 Coppa Italia Lega Pro (2 out of possible 6 matches).[7][8] Baraldo also received recall from national youth team for 2011 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship qualification,[9] despite he was cut from the 23-men preliminary squad to the final 18-men squad. On 17 November 2010 Barletta announced that Baraldo would return to Piacenza once the January transfer window opens.[10] On 31 January 2011 Baraldo was signed by Empoli.[11] However he only played once for their reserve.[12] Baraldo returned to Piacenza on 1 July 2011 which the club had relegated to 2011–12 Lega Pro Prima Divisione; Baraldo played for the club at 2011–12 Coppa Italia Lega Pro.[13]

Footnotes

  1. ^ Baraldo received a call-up to a friendly tournament in March 2008,[2] however the archive of Italian Football Federation did not have the record of the matches (Ireland, Turkey, Malta), thus his cap for the under-16 team was at least: 1, as indicated by the archive, and a (unused?) substitute appearance against Turkey, as indicated by Turkish Football Federation.[3]
