Career

"Depetris at 11 was more famous than [Lionel] Messi. – I remember Depetris played in a tournament in Córdoba against Newell's in the final. He played against Messi. Depetris' team won. After the game, all the microphones, all the journalists surrounded Depetris. Only few people went near Messi."

—In an interview with Dabuoh Augustine of Bleacher Report, Lionel Messi's teammate from La Maquina del '87 (Newell's Old Boys youth team) Franco Falleroni pointed out that there was more noise being made in Rosario about Leandro Depetris, who was a year younger than Messi.[4]

Depetris started his career at Club Atlético Brown San Vicente and played later for Newell's Old Boys de Rosario.[5] In summer 2000 in the age of eleven signed for Italian Serie A side AC Milan[6] and was 2003 loaned to River Plate.[7] He was signed by Brescia in summer 2005, but due to FIFA rule, his transfer would be made official after his 18th birthday.[8] He scored in his debut and only appearances in 2005-06 Serie B season.[9] De Petris played the 2010/2011 season for A.C. Chioggia Sottomarina and US Sanremese Calcio 1904.[10]
