Lorenzo Crocetti (born 20 September 1983) is an Italian footballer who plays for Serie D club Siena.

Biography

Born in Bagno a Ripoli, the Province of Florence, Tuscany, Crocetti started his career at Florence club AC Fiorentina. Crocetti made his Serie A debut in the last round of 2001–02 Serie A, on 5 May, against Perugia. Crocetti was the starting forward. He was substituted by Filippo Fedeli at half time.[4] At the end of season Fiorentina bankrupted.

On 31 August 2002 Crocetti joined Serie B club Perugia on free transfer.[5] He played twice for the first team, in the last few rounds of 2002–03 Serie B.

Since 2003, he spent the next 10 seasons in Italian Lega Pro as well as in Swiss Challenge League and 1. Liga Classic.

Crocetti was transferred to the third division club Vis Pesaro in mid-2003 in co-ownership deal. Vis Pesaro bought the remaining 50% registration rights of Crocetti in June 2004[6] but re-sold Crocetti to Cittadella soon after.

Crocetti joined Pergocrema in August 2005,[7] for €400,000.[8] He spent 5 seasons in Pergoletto including periods of loan. Crocetti scored 16 goals in 2005–06 Serie C2, as the joint-second in the group A of the fourth division. (another was Roberto Barbieri)[9]

In January 2010 he left for Bassano in temporary deal.[10][11] He was signed outright at the end of the season.[12] However, in January 2011, after the club signed Cristian Longobardi, Crocetti left the club in another temporary deal. Both Crocetti and Longobardi were the team top-scorer of 5 goals only that season.[13] Crocetti was the third scorer for Lucchese, behind Alessandro Marotta and Luigi Grassi.[14] However, in term of goal per game (0.50) he was the first in the squad.[14]

On 13 February 2012 he was signed by FC Lugano.[15]

After 1 and a half year in Switzerland, Crocetti returned to Italian football for San Marinese club San Marino Calcio.[16]

On 31 August, 2014, Crocetti moved to recently reformed Serie D team Siena.

International career

Crocetti was a member of Italy youth teams. He was in the squad for 2000 UEFA European Under-16 Football Championship qualification (now renamed to under-17 event).
