Career
D'Agostino started his career at the CND team Lascaris, and joined the Serie C2 team U.S. Pro Vercelli Calcio in 1998. He was spotted by Serie B team Treviso F.B.C. 1993 in January 2003 on a co-ownership deal, and Treviso obtained full ownership a year later.
Atalanta
D'Agostino was sold to Udinese Calcio in June 2005. However, on 1 July 2005, D'Agostino was sold to Atalanta BC in a co-ownership deal for €800,000 in a five-year contract,[1][2] as part of a mega swap deal with the relegated side. (Manfredini and D'Agostino to Atalanta for €2 million;[2] 50% registration rights of Motta (€2.05 million),[1] Rossini (€450,000)[1] and Morosini; 100% registration rights of Gotti and Natali to Udinese for undisclosed fees.)[3][4]
In June 2006, Atalanta signed D'Agostino outright for free;[1] Udinese signed Morosini for an undisclosed fee, Rossini for free.[1]
He was loaned to Cagliari in the same summer,[5] playing his first Serie A season. The club decided not to sign him at the end of the season.[6]
On 2 February 2009, he was loaned to Parma.[7] On 17 July 2009, his contract with Atalanta was mutually terminated.[8]
Late career
In September 2009, he was announced as new signing for Cagliari-based Eccellenza Sardinia club Progetto Sant'Elia.[9] He returned into professionalism only a few months later, joining Ascoli in January 2010. In 2011, he came to Romania by signing with Gloria Bistriţa.
After six and a half seasons with Tortoli Calcio, 41-year-old D'Agostino joined ASD Monastir Kosmoto playing in the Calcio a 5 Serie B on 23 December 2019.[10]
