International career

edit

With Italy, Gasperi won the Olympic bronze medal at the 1928 Summer Olympics in the men's football team competition, but because of a disputed game in some accounts of that history, his name is not listed among the medal winners.[2] What is without a doubt though is, that he did start in two matches for Italy in the silver winning 1931-32 Central European International Cup campaign.
