Club career

Frigerio began his career in the youth team of Lugano in 1930. After spending some time in the youth team of English club Liverpool, he returned to Switzerland, where he joined Servette.[1]

Frigerio made his professional debut in the Young Fellows Juventus, where he played for eight years, during which they won the 1935–36 Swiss Cup. Frigerio was the scorer of the 1936–37 Nationalliga.

In mid-1937, Frigerio was acquired by the French club Le Havre, with whom he won the 1937–38 French Division 2. After that season returned to Switzerland, due to the outbreak of the Second World War. Between 1939 and 1942 he played for Lugano, with whom he won the 1940–41 Nationalliga and were runners up in the 1942–43 Swiss Cup, being the goalscorer of the 1940–41 and 1941–42 Nationalliga.

Frigerio played four years at the club Bellinzona, and ended his career in 1949 at the club Chiasso.

International career

Frigerio made his international debut on 6 March 1932 at the age of 17 (a record that lasted a long time) in a friendly match against Germany in Leipzig that ended in a 2–0 defeat. Frigerio played a total of 10 matches between 1932 and 1937, and scored his only goal in a 2–2 draw against Yugoslavia on 24 September 1933 in a 1934 FIFA World Cup qualifier match. He was called for the 1938 FIFA World Cup squad, however he did not play any match.

Managerial career

Frigerio played 1947–48 Nationalliga B as a player-manager of Chiasso. That year the team was the runner-up in the league, tied on 36 points with Urania Genève Sport, which was promoted for next year. The next season, Italian Alfredo Foni (also player-manager) replaced Frigerio as coach. Frigerio left football in 1949, returned as manager of Chiasso in 1951, and retired again that year.[1]

Son of Swiss Reinaldo Frigeiro, a consul, and Colombian María Payán, Alessandro lived in Buenaventura until age 8.[1]
