Club career

With little chance of playing as first goalkeeper at Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata, where he started in the youth division, he was transferred on loan to Villa Dálmine (Primera C Metropolitana) for six months. In the second half of 2006, thanks to a good performance in a turbulent moment in Gimnasia in the 2006 Apertura Tournament, he earned the goalkeeper position displacing Juan Carlos Olave. Kletnicki was subsequently relegated to backup keeper to first Sebastián Cejas and later Gaston Sessa.

Abroad, Kletnicki played for Uruguayan club Boston River,^[2] the Chilean club Deportes Concepción^[3] and the Mexican club Murciélagos.^[4]

He retired in October 2023.^[5]
