On 3 August 2018, Albertazzi joined Serie B club Livorno. Two days later, he made his debut for the club, playing the entire 120-minute Coppa Italia game against Casertana and scoring in the penalty shootout. However, having made only 6 appearances for the club (the last of which was on 31 October 2018), he left the club as a free agent at the end of season.

On 30 July 2015, Albertazzi joined Hellas Verona on a free transfer.

In the 2015–16 Serie A season he made 10 appearances for the club. In August 2016, he sustained an anterior cruciate ligament injury that was not diagnosed in a timely manner and eventually left him out of play for the two consecutive seasons. In 2017, he took a legal action against Hellas Verona citing medical negligence and deliberate refusal to reintegrate him into the squad as causes for the early contract termination and won the court case. The verdict also included his former club paying him €144,000 as a compensation (which was the equivalent of his yearly salary).

On 20 June 2014, Albertazzi returned to Milan after his full rights were acquired by the club.

Albertazzi left for Spanish club Getafe in June 2011. However, he did not play any games. On 31 January 2012 Albertazzi returned to Italy for Serie B club A.S. Varese 1910. Albertazzi failed to make a debut in the first 3 months. Instead, he played 5 games for the reserves as an over-age player (at most 4 born 1991 players were allowed). Near the end of season both the first team and the reserves were aiming for promotion and the title respectively, at which point Albertazzi returned to the first team. Albertazzi made his Serie B debut on 1 May 2012 as starting defender, beating A.S.G. Nocerina 2–0. The team also rested a number of players in order to prepare for the next match against eighth placed Brescia. On the same day that the first team played against Brescia, Albertazzi started for the reserves against Fiorentina in the second round of the playoffs on 5 May 2012. Albertazzi returned to the first team again on 2 June, for the away match of the promotion playoffs. He was named in the reserve squad for the playoffs quarterfinals held in the Province of Perugia, but did not travel with the team. He remained in the first team squad (for the finals first leg only) after the reserves were eliminated by Roma, but Albertazzi failed to make the starting lineup or the bench.

Albertazzi returned to Milan at the beginning of the 2012–13 season, being also named in 23-man squad for the pre-season TIM Trophy. However, on 31 July 2012 he was loaned to Serie B club Hellas Verona. Albertazzi was injured in his left knee from January to February 2013. Half of his registration rights, however, were purchased on 12 July 2013, for €250,000.

He played for the team in friendlies to prepare for 2009 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship qualification, but dropped out from the final squad. In the rest of the season he played for Italy national under-20 football team instead, after Italy was eliminated in the qualification. Albertazzi returned to U19 team in 2009–10 season, rejoining other born 1991 players. Albertazzi played twice in 2010 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship qualification. He also played all the matches in the next round and two in the final tournament. He was sent off in the second match.

Albertazzi played all 5 matches for Italy in 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup in September–October. He also played all 4 matches in 2009 Mediterranean Games in June to prepare for the World Youth Cup.

Albertazzi already played twice in 2008 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship elite qualification in May 2008. He also played 3 times in 2008 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship.

Born in Bologna, Emilia-Romagna region, Albertazzi started his career at Bologna F.C. 1909. On 30 August 2007 Albertazzi was sold to A.C. Milan in a co-ownership deal worth €1 million. He was loaned back to Bologna until January 2008. In June 2008 Milan bought Albertazzi outright for another €1 million. Despite his young age, Albertazzi had already played for Bologna in the "Primavera" under-20 reserve league in 2006–07 season. Albertazzi also won the "Primavera" Italian Cup with Milan in 2010. He was also loaned back to Milan's under-18 team for the finals of 2009 Campionato Nazionale Dante Berretti, where Milan was the champion of the wild card group. Milan's "Primavera" team (U19) failed to qualify for the playoffs round that season, but the "Berretti" U17 team did. The coach used the majority of the "Primavera" U19 team (such as reserve keeper Miśkiewicz, Romagnoli, Oduamadi and Strasser, all born in 1989 or 1990) to beat Juventus' "Berretti" U17 team 2–1 (with only two born 1990 and the rest of the squad born 1991). A.C. Milan Primavera was eliminated by Sampdoria in the quarter-finals in 2010, and by Roma in the quarter-finals in 2011.

Albertazzi played for Italy from U16 to U20 level. He started his career in 2005 Christmas Youth Event (Italian: Torneo Giovanile di Natale).
