Nicolas Giacopetti (born 5 June 2006) is a Sammarinese footballer who plays as a centre-forward for Pietracuta and the San Marino national team.

International career

Giacopetti made his debut for the San Marino national team on 5 September 2024 in a Nations League game against Liechtenstein at the San Marino Stadium. He substituted Nicola Nanni in the 71st minute, as the game ended in 1–0 San Marino victory, which was their first ever competitive victory, and their second-ever victory overall (the first victory came 20 years earlier in a friendly against Liechtenstein).[1]

On 18 November 2025, as San Marino lost 7–1 in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification game against Romania, he scored his first international goal, becoming at 19 years and 5 months the youngest Sammarinese to score in a FIFA World Cup qualification game.[2]
