Career

edit

Born and raised in Municipality of Como, Cetti (also known as Cetti II, to distinguish him from his brother and Como teammate Franceso Cetti, known as Cetti I) spent his entire football career at Como, where he played for over twenty years.[citation needed]

He still holds the record for goals scored in competitive matches for Como with 91 goals. In terms of appearances for the Como team, he is fourth in the all-time rankings, with 278 competitive games.[1]

In 1938, he also served as head coach of Como which made him a player-coach for the club. After retiring as a player in 1941, he then became full-time coach of Como until 1944 before ending his career as coach of Cantù San Paolo.[2]
