Antonio Aldo Caracciolo (born 30 June 1990) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Serie A club Pisa.
Genoa
Caracciolo was a youth product of Lombard club Inter Milan. He was a player of the under-16 team in 2005–06 season.[2] Caracciolo then left for fellow Lombard club Pavia, at first on loan.[3]
On 29 January 2010, Bari signed the defender on loan until 30 June 2010.[4] He was selected as a substitute once under coach Giampiero Ventura, on 16 May 2010, but did not come off the bench.
On 20 July 2010, he was signed by Genoa.[5] He left the club on loan with Gubbio.[citation needed]
In July 2011 he was loaned to Gubbio again but suffered a minor injury in pre-season.[6]
Brescia
In summer 2012 Caracciolo was farmed to Serie B club Brescia Calcio on a four-year contract on a co-ownership deal.[7] The club acquired half of the registration rights of the player for a peppercorn fee.[8] In June 2013 Brescia acquired Caracciolo outright.[7][9][10]
On 19 July 2013, Caracciolo was transferred to Lega Pro Prima Divisione club U.S. Cremonese on a temporary deal. The club also had an option to sign him outright.[11][12]
On 1 December 2015, Caracciolo signed a new contract with Brescia, adding two more year to his contract.[13] However, he was sold in summer 2016.
Verona
On 11 August 2016, Caracciolo was signed by Hellas Verona F.C.[14][15] He was extremely criticized for this by the Brescia's supporters because Brescia and Verona are huge rivals.[16] After playing 33 matches he gave his contributions to help Verona to get back to Serie A after 2016 relegation. He made his Serie A debut in a home 0–0 against U.C. Sampdoria where he played the full 90 minutes. He scored his first goal in Serie A (and for Verona) in a surprising 3–0 home win against A.C. Milan.[17][18]
On 10 March 2018, he scored the winning goal in a 1–0 win in the Derby della Scala against Chievo.[19]
Cremonese
On 16 January 2019, Caracciolo joined to Cremonese on loan with an obligation to buy.[20]
