Joe Kato Caletti (加藤 カレッティ 丈, Katō Karetti Jō, born 14 September 1998) is an Australian professional soccer player who plays as a central midfielder for Brisbane Roar.[2]

Career[edit]

Caletti joined Brisbane Roar in January 2016 after previously playing for the FFA Centre of Excellence, where he was named Player of the Season twice.[3] At the age of 18, he debuted for Brisbane Roar.[4] In mid 2019, Caletti was released by Brisbane Roar and was without club for a few months before signing for 3rd tier club Florø in Norway.[5] Caletti is a former captain of the Australia national under-17 football team, captaining the team at 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Chile.[6]

In 25 July 2022, Caletti signed to Kantō Soccer League club Tochigi City FC from Adelaide United.[7]

Personal life[edit]

Caletti is half Japanese, half Italian, and was born in Sydney, Australia. Besides his home-country, he has played in Norway and Japan.[8]

Playing style[edit]

Caletti is widely accredited for his high work rate and willingness to compete in the midfield despite his small stature. His composure on the ball and ability to execute crucial passes has led to comparisons with former Brisbane Roar player Massimo Murdocca.[9]
