Jenner Zottele (born 23 May 1985), better known as Zotti, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder.

Career

[edit]

Having started his career in the Portuguesa youth sectors, Zotti arrived at Atlético Mineiro in 2005. He spent most of his time at the club on loan, but played in two matches during the 2006 Série B title campaign.[1] He played for more modest teams in Brazilian football in the first part of his career, being champion only with Cabofriense, in the second tier of football in Rio de Janeiro.

In the 2015 season, after standing out for Treze in the Campeonato Paraibano,[2] and with a quick spell at CRAC, he arrived at Vila Nova, where he was decisive in winning the 2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Série C, scoring one of the goals in the finals.[3][4] Zotti remained at Vila Nova in the first part of the 2016 season, arriving at Botafogo de Ribeirão Preto in August, and staying until the end of the Série C.[5][6]

Zotti started the 2017 season with Macaé, and ended up playing for ABC.[7][8] In 2018 he defended EC Novo Hamburgo and Joinville.[9][10] In the 2019 season he played for three clubs: EC São José, Villa Nova AC and Remo.[11][12]

In 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic and after playing at Ypiranga de Erechim,[13] Zotti arrived at the club for which he played more seasons and won more titles. With Brasiliense FC he was champion of the 2020 Copa Verde, two-time state champion and played for three full seasons, totaling 106 appearances and 8 goals for the club.[14][15]

Zotti left Brasiliense at the end of August 2023,[16] and in 2024 he played in the Campeonato Goiano for Goianésia.[17] Afterwards, he was hired by Anápolis to compete in the 2024 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D, where he finished runner-up.[18]

Style of play

[edit]

Zotti is considered a classic midfielder, capable of controlling the game with precise and rhythmic touches of the ball. He is also notable for his great finishing ability.[11]
