Football career

From 1925 Lupi played for FC Chiasso who at that time played in the Serie B, the second tier of Swiss football. Following the 1926–27 season Chiasso won promotion to the Serie A.[1]

In 1929 Lupi was called up for the Swiss national team. He played his debut for them on 6 October in the away game against Czechoslovakia. The Swiss were beaten 0–5 and this remained his only appearance for his country.[2]

Lupi joined FC Basel's first team for their 1931–32 season under coach Gustav Putzendopler. After playing in one test game, Lupi played his domestic league debut for the club in the home game in the Landhof on 30 August 1931 as Basel were defeated 1–4 by Young Fellows Zürich.[3]

He played with the team only half a year and during this time Lupi played a total of five games for Basel without scoring a goal. Three of these games were in the Serie A and two were friendly games.[4]
