Brescia

Born in Brescia, Lombardy, Viotti started his career at Brescia Calcio. He was the starting goalkeeper of Primavera team in 2007–08 season, ahead Andrea Caroppo.[1] In June 2008 he left for Bellaria – Igea Marina.[2] On 1 July 2009 he returned to Brescia and promoted to first team (despite still eligible to Primavera, which was played by Nicola Leali and Michal Hrivňák). He wrote no.22 that season,[3] (which he owned that shirt since 2006–07 season but did not play[4]) winning the promotion play-off with team to Serie A.

Triestina

In August 2010 he left for Serie B team Triestina in co-ownership deal, for €50,000.[5][6] He was the understudy of Roberto Colombo.

Chievo and loans

On 24 June 2011 Triestina bought him outright for another €50,000[5][7] but in August sold to Serie A team Chievo, rejoining international team-mate Marco Silvestri (who already left on loan to Reggiana). Chievo also signed Alessandro Longhi and re-sold half of the rights to Sassuolo. On 31 August he returned to Trieste.[8]

Viotti was the starting keeper for Triestina in 2011–12 Lega Pro Prima Divisione. However, in January 2012 Grosseto loaned Viotti from Chievo.[9] Viotti was the understudy of Antonio Narciso and wore no.23 shirt.

U-18 & U-19

He also received call-up to U-18 and U-19 team for train camp from Francesco Rocca.[20] However new coach Massimo Piscedda dropped both Fiorillo (who promoted to U21), Viotti as well as Carlo Pinsoglio,[21][22] (or unable to call-up) which Azzurrini was eliminated from the first qualifying round held in Moldova.

U-20

He benched on the next game as understudy of Pinsoglio against England in March, but dropped form the round 4 of Four Nations Tournament. He was in the preliminary 30-men squad to 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup,[23] eventually he did not entered the final squad coached by Rocca. He also played the first round of 2009–10 Four Nations Tournament, which he was substituted by Alex Teodorani in the second half. Since then he was dropped from national squad.
