Club career[]
Cerro Porteño[]
Pitta was formed at the Cerro Porteño youth academy from 2013 to 2017, where he was leading goal scorer for its teams.[3] His playing style at Cerro Porteño was an area-man.[4]
GDSC Alvarenga[]
Pitta briefly played for Portuguese club Alvarenga in Arouca for six months during the 2017-18 season,[5] where he scored 5 goals in 14 matches. Upon returning to Paraguay from Portugal, Pitta trialed for Primera División Paraguaya club Guaraní.[6]
Deportivo Santani[]
In 2019, Pitta signed a two year contract with Deportivo Santaní.[7] Whilst at Deportivo Santani, Pitta was represented by Juan Dragotto.[8]
In March 2019, Pitta debuted and scored in the same game for Deportivo Santaní against Olimpia Asunción. He entered the pitch at the 13th minute of the first half, then scored his goal in the second half of a game which ended in a 2-2 draw.[9]
Amongst other clubs in Paraguay, Argentina and Chile, Universidad de Chile were interested in Pitta during 2019.[10]
In December 2019, Paraguayan Periodic HOY announced that Pitta would join Sportivo Luqueño for the 2020 season and had departed Deportivo Santani, who descended to the country's second-tier.[11]
Sportivo Luqueño[]
In August 2020, Pitta was in the interest of Argentine club Union de Santa Fé after scoring three goals in three games following the recommencement of the 2020 season.[12] In September 2020, Tigo Sports announced that Pitta was in the orbit of Primera División Argentina club Independiente.[13] Independiente unsuccessfully submitted a loan offer for Pitta with an option to buy him.[14]

On 16 August 2021, Pitta moved to Spain and signed a four-year contract with Segunda División side SD Huesca.[16]
