Biography
Born in Pietrasanta, the Province of Lucca, Massoni started his career at Lucca team Lucchese. He spent 2 seasons loaned to Viareggio in 2006–07 and 2007–08 season, winning Serie D and remain in Serie C2 by winning the relegation playoffs in 2008.[1][2] After the bankrupt of Lucchese he was signed by Serie B team Sassuolo but farmed back to Viareggio in co-ownership deal, rejoining Lucchese team-mate Maikol Benassi[3] and Luca Ruglioni. He played 28 league matches that season and played both legs of promotion playoffs.[4][5] Despite the team finished as the losing semi-finalists, Viareggio promoted to fill the vacancies left by the bankrupted teams on 30 July. On 25 June Sassuolo bought him back but re-sold to Prima Divisione team Verona in another co-ownership deal, for €50,000[6][7] along with Sassuolo team-mate Filippo Pensalfini and Andy Selva. He only played 6 times in the league and 1 more in the promotion playoffs.[8] On 5 July 2010 Viareggio re-signed Massoni and also borrowed Davide Bertolucci from Verona.[9] He almost played all the matches for Viareggio, only missed 3 league matches due to suspensions.[10][11] In the cup he played 3 out of 6 possible matches.[12][13][14] He started in the relegation playoffs, partnered with Lorenzo Fiale, winning Cosenza in aggregate.[15][16]
On 24 June 2011 Sassuolo bought Massoni back for a peppercorn of €500, in 2-year contract.[6][17]
