Lanzoni made his debut for the Latics within a couple of days after signing his contract, starting against Tranmere at right-back following an injury to right-back Connor Brown. Lanzoni played the whole 90 minutes and received the Man of the Match award.[2]

On 14 September 2013, against Rotherham United, Lanzoni scored his first goal for the club, scoring Oldham's second goal of the game from close range.[3]

On 31 December 2013, it was announced that he had left Oldham after turning down a new contract from the club.[4] He had made 15 appearances for the club, scoring twice.
