Vetro came through the youth ranks of Noisiel FC and US Torcy before joining INF Clairefontaine.[4][5] At the age of 15, Vetro joined the youth ranks of Girondins de Bordeaux.[5]

After a couple of years playing for their B team and having recovered from various injuries, Vetro made his senior debut for Bordeaux on 19 November 2022 as a substitute in a Coupe de France win away to Trélissac.[6]

Vetro made his league debut for Les Girondins on 23 January 2024 in a Ligue 2 victory at home against Valenciennes, and provided an assist in the same game.[7] Vetro scored his first goal for Bordeaux on 19 February 2024, netting a late equaliser away to Amiens.[5][8]

Burnley

On 29 August 2024, Vetro joined the academy of EFL Championship club Burnley, signing a four-year deal with the Clarets.[9]

Dundee (loan)

On the same day that he signed for Burnley, Vetro immediately joined Scottish Premiership club Dundee on a season-long loan after trialling for a period beforehand.[10][11] Vetro made his debut on 21 September as a substitute in Dundee's Scottish League Cup quarter-final match away to Rangers.[12] On 3 November, Vetro collapsed in the dressing room and was taken to hospital prior to a Dundee game which he was named as a substitute for, but recovered and returned to Dens Park in time to celebrate his team's comeback victory over Kilmarnock with his teammates.[13]
