Charles "Charly" Marchetti (17 June 1942 – 7 February 2018) was a French professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper. He notably played for Cannes, Nice, and Ajaccio.[1]
Marchetti began his career at Cavigal Nice in his hometown of Nice.[2] From 1960 to 1963, he played in the Division 2 for Cannes.[citation needed] In 1963, he signed for Division 1 club Nice. At the end of the 1963–64 season, the club suffered relegation to the Division 2, but was promoted back up in 1965 after winning the 1964–65 Division 2.[citation needed] Marchetti signed for Ajaccio in 1966 before returning to Nice two years later. With the club, he would go on to win the Division 2 in the 1969–70 season and the Challenge des Champions in 1970.[citation needed] Marchetti retired in 1971, having made 137 appearances in all competitions for Nice across his two spells at the club.[2][1]
