Biography

Youth career

Born in Pinerolo, the Province of Turin (Torino), Dalla Costa was signed by F.C. Internazionale Milano in mid-2003. In 2005–06 season he was the member of Berretti under-20 team (B team of age under-20). He scored 7 goals in regular season.^[1]

Lega Pro clubs

In mid-2006 he was loaned to Pro Sesto along with Nicola Redomi, Daniele Federici, Nicholas Artico, Alessandro Brioschi, Alessio Colombo, Alessandro Mosca and Luca Palazzo (co-ownership), which Dalla Costa made his first team debut during the season. In January 2007 Inter sold half of the registration rights to Pro Sesto for a fee of €500 (Federici also sold for undisclosed fee), and Pro Sesto striker Aiman Napoli joined Inter in exchange for undisclosed fee. In 2007–08 Serie C1 he played 15 times. Dalla Costa then spent 2008–09 season at Seconda Divisione (ex- Serie C2) side Sangiovannese, which he mainly as a substitute.

The co-ownership was renewed in June 2007, 2008 and again in 2009.^[2] Pro Sesto sold its 50% rights to fellow Seconda Divisione club Olbia in mid-2009 (Pro Sesto relegated in 2009) However he returned to Sesto San Giovanni in January 2010.^[3] In 2009–10 he only played 10 times in total. In June 2010, Inter gave up the remain 50% rights to Olbia.^[4] However, the Commissione di Vigilanza sulle Società di Calcio Professionistiche (Co.Vi.So.C.) of FIGC rejected to issue new license for Olbia at the end of season, thus folded.^[5]

Dalla Costa then moved to Serie D (non-professional/regional) team Caratese in 2010–11 season.

Novara

In March 2011 he signed a pre-contract with Serie B team Novara Calcio to join the club at the end of season. Novara promoted in June and in August 2011 he was loaned to Seconda Divisione team Pro Patria.

International career

Dalla Costa had played for Italy youth team at 2005 FIFA U-17 World Championship (2 matches) and 2005 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship (3 matches).
