Career

Magro was signed by Udinese in January 2000,[2] signing a contract until 2004.[3] He was loaned back to Switzerland, first to FC Basel and then to FC Zürich, but he broken his leg in 2002 and had to rest for a year.

He came to Djurgårdens IF on free transfer from Landskrona BoIS at the start of the 2005 season, and he returned from a loan to AC Lugano. In late 2007, when his contract with DIF had run out, he signed a three-year contract with IFK Norrköping.[4] In January 2009, he terminated his contract with the club.[5] and joined Grasshopper Club Zürich.

After a few months without a team, he left for 1.Liga side Chiasso in April 2010 and won promotion back to the Challenge League.

International

A Swiss youth international, Magro chose to represent Italy in 1999. He played for the Italy U20 team at the 2000 Toulon Tournament.
