Mazzetti was first brought to Malta when he joined Qormi after having played with a host of clubs around South America, Europe, and the Middle East.[1] He joined Birkirkara in January 2015,[2][3] and was a scorer in their 2014–15 FA Cup Trophy win against Hibernians Paola, with the game finishing 2–0.

Mazzetti participated in Birkirkara's Europa League tie against West Ham United F.C. West Ham reportedly showed interest in the defender after his impressive display.[4] After the match West Ham showed interest in Birkirkara's Mauricio Mazzetti, but then club president Adrian Delia commented that no formal offers had been made to Birkirkara.[5]

Mazzetti was later released by Birkirkara in July 2016.[6]

In December 2016, Mazzetti was reported to have joined Terengganu F.C. I, together with fellow Argentine Federico Falcone, a former Valletta F.C. striker in the Maltese Premier League.[7]
