He made his Serie A debut with Genoa on 8 September 1957, in a 4–0 away defeat against Napoli.

He made his international debut on 28 February 1959, in a 1–1 friendly home draw against Spain, and he later took part at the 1966 FIFA World Cup in England. In the latter tournament, he assisted Sandro Mazzola's opening goal and then scored a late goal himself in the team's opening 2–0 win over Chile. Italy were eliminated in the first round following an unexpected 1–0 loss to North Korea in their final group match, in which he also appeared.
