Professional career
Caraccio began his career in the youth ranks of Argentina club Arsenal de Sarandí and played five games for the club's first team during the Clausura tournament in 2006. He also played one league game during the 2006 Apertura tournament and one game in the Copa Sudamericana in 2007.
On February 28, 2008, Caraccio signed with the Houston Dynamo of Major League Soccer. He played his first games for the Dynamo in the 2008 CONCACAF Champions' Cup and made his MLS debut in Houston's first match of the 2008 MLS season against the New England Revolution on March 29, 2008. On April 6, 2008 Caraccio scored his first Dynamo goal on a header after a cross by left midfielder Corey Ashe.
He was waived by the Houston Dynamo on July 18, 2008. After an unsuccessful trial with New York Red Bulls he signed with the Primera B Nacional team Club Atlético All Boys.
On October 14, 2009, Franco was signed by U.S. Foggia on the advice of the sporting director.
He scored his first goal for Foggia with a game-winner in a match against Delfino Pescara on May 23, 2010. He had appeared in a few fleeting appearances with the club, but his performance was crucial in this play-off victory being the last game of the season, giving the team an unexpected salvation. The joy, however, ended after the final whistle, when coming in the locker room, he received the bad news of the death of his father.
In January 2011, Caraccio signed with the C.A.I., currently in the Primera B Nacional in Argentina. Manager Player is Marcos Garzia Manager Argentine Players (GarziaSoccer)
