Early career

Born in Monza, in the Milan metropolitan area, Fossati started playing football as a child with amateur team Cimiano in 2001,[2] before joining A.C. Milan's youth system at the start of the 2002–03 season.[3] Five years later he left for city rival Internazionale,[4] where he went on to spend three seasons, playing for the Allievi (under-17) and Primavera (under-20) sides,[5][6][7] as well as making three appearances with the first team in friendly matches.[8][9][10] However, in July 2010 Fossati was transferred back to Milan, along with Attila Filkor and Cristian Daminuţă,[11] for a total fee of €7 million.[12] He spent the 2010–11 season playing for Milan's Primavera (under-20) side.[13]

At the start of the 2011–12 season Fossati was sent out on loan to Lega Pro Prima Divisione club Latina,[14] making his official debut for the club on 4 September 2011, in a 1–1 draw against Siracusa.[15] He went on to score two goals in 22 league appearances. The following season, Fossati joined Serie B side Ascoli on another loan spell.[16] For the 2013–14 campaign he moved to Bari, another Serie B club, once again on a loan deal.[17]
