Biography

Born in Pavia, Lombardy, Zanini started his career at hometown club A.C. Pavia. He was the member of the reserve team in 2011–12 season.[1] He made his first team debut during 2012–13 Lega Pro Prima Divisione season. On 6 December 2012 he signed his first fully professional contract.[2] However at the end of season, on 29 June 2013, he was sold to Serie B club Cesena in co-ownership deal for €400,000 in 3-year contract, with Caio De Cenco moved to Pavia also in co-ownership deal for €350,000.[3]

On 18 July 2013 he returned to Pavia along with Cesena team-mate Fabio Reato (whom Cesena signed him in 2012).[4] Pavia finished as the last of Group A in 2013–14 Lega Pro Prima Divisione season, but due to the merger of the prime and second division of Lega Pro, the team did not relegate.

On 20 June 2014 the co-ownership of Zanini, Reato and De Cenco were renewed.[5]
