Career
Youth career
Costantino began his youth career with SPAL 1907, and remained with the central Italian club's junior squad until July 2009, when he was transferred to Serie A side U.C. Sampdoria's youth side.[1]
Following the appointment of the new board and staff at Juventus at the conclusion of the 2009-10 season, Costantino was one of many new faces brought to Turin. Ex-Sampdoria head coach Luigi Delneri and sports director Giuseppe Marotta were appointed as the same positions in Juve and played a role in bringing the youngster to Turin.[citation needed] He joined Juventus in order to strengthen the Primavera team but was immediately promoted to the senior squad as their no.1 Italian internationals Gianluigi Buffon injured since June 2010. He was registered in Juventus's 24-men UEFA Europa League first team squad (list A) as the fourth keeper, behind Gianluigi Buffon, former Sampdoria teammate Marco Storari and Austrian internationals Alex Manninger.[2] Juventus also registered young Primavera player Marco Bonassi in B list in qualifying and playoffs phase,[3] but soon left the club on loan. Costantino played most of the games of the "Primavera" (Spring) League.[4]
Juventus and loans
In July 2011 Marco Costantino was loaned to Latina. He made his debut in 2011–12 Coppa Italia.[5]
International career
He received some call-up from Italian youth teams[6] but never made a debut.
