Player career

Mario Beretta's playing career was short-lived. He only played at AC Pro Sesto .

Coaching career

In 1982, at the age of 23, he got his first job as a youth coach at the amateur club ASD Abbiategrasso . For the following 12 years he was also active in the same position at AC Monza Brianza and Como Calcio . He was also a teacher at the Istituto Leopardi in Milan. In 1994 Beretta got his first job as a coach of a men's team, here the amateur club US Corsico . A year later he took over the team of his former clubs Pro Patria Calcio reflecting in the lowest Italian professional league, the series C played. This was followed by other coaching positions at FBC Saronno, Como Calcio and AC Lumezzane before he was hired by Varese FC . With this team Beretta reached the play-offs for Serie B , but failed in the semi-finals at AS Cittadella . In 2002 he was hired as the coach of Ternana Calcio , which was his first Serie B job.

Two years later at Chievo Verona in Serie A, he was the difficult successor to successful coach Luigi Delneri , who immediately led the team to the UEFA Cup after the promotion season. After a perfect start under Beretta, Verona had climbed to third place in the table behind Juventus Turin and AC Milan in the 2004/05 season , but the team's performance gradually deteriorated. Three game days before the end of the season, the team was only third from bottom and Beretta was replaced by his former assistant coach Maurizio D'Angelo . In the following season he coached Parma FC and reached tenth place. However, due to the soccer scandal in Italy in 2005/06, Parma moved up to seventh place and qualified for the UEFA Cup. Nevertheless, Beretta left the club and went to AC Siena , with whom he was in a relegation battle for the entire 2006/07 season. Despite rank 14 and the associated relegation, he was dismissed at the end of the season, his successor was Andrea Mandorlini .

Just five months after his release, Beretta was reinstated as a trainer in Siena on November 12, 2007. Despite the successful relegation again, he did not extend his contract and moved to the first division promoted US Lecce for the 2008/09 season . On March 9, 2009 he was dismissed before the end of the season, as Lecce was only on 19th place in the table after the last 6 games without a win. From November 29, 2009 to January 10, 2010, Mario Beretta was the coach of Turin FC . Curiously enough, after just 4 games (3 defeats, 1 draw) he was replaced by his predecessor Stefano Colantuono . In June 2010 he was appointed head coach of the Greek first division club PAOK Thessaloniki . On July 22, it was announced that he would have to vacate his post after just one month. The club management was dissatisfied with his preparation for the season.

On December 6, 2010, he was introduced as the head coach at Brescia Calcio .
