Career

Internazionale

Born in Buenos Aires of Italian parents, Dellafiore started his professional career with Internazionale. Dellafiore had played for Inter since 1999–2000 season and in 2002–03 promoted to Primavera team, the top reserve team of Inter.[1] He made his debut with the nerazzurri in a UEFA Champions League match against R.S.C. Anderlecht, on 7 December 2004. He then spent two seasons on loan to Serie C1's Spezia (with Riccardo Meggiorini) and Serie A's Treviso.

Palermo

In 2006 he was sold to Palermo for €1.5 million as part of the deal that brought Fabio Grosso to Inter (€6.5M).[2][3] and managed to make seven appearances in his first season with the rosanero. He was then loaned to Torino for €100,000 (with option to purchase),[4] where he had the opportunity to play more regularly, before being called back to Sicily in June 2008 (which Palermo paid Torino €400,000 to counter the buy option).[4] Dellafiore signed a 5-year contract during 2008–09 season,[5] but on 14 January 2009 turned back to Torino F.C. on loan for €400,000.[5][6] After 6 months with Torino, Torino president Urbano Cairo announced that Dellafiore will play for Palermo for 2009–2010[7] after the team was relegated.

Parma (loan)

On 3 July 2009 Parma F.C. have signed Dellafiore on loan from Palermo, for €250,000, with option to sign half of the rights for €1.75 million.[8][9] After the end of the season, Dellafiore returned to Sicily, but was loaned out again to Parma later on 20 August 2010, for free with option to sign half of the rights for €400,000.[8][10] He was sub-loaned to Cesena on 7 January 2011, for €200,000.[11]

Parma & Novara

In August 2011 is permanently transferred to Parma F.C., for free.[12] In the same month he moved to Serie A newcomer Novara Calcio for a peppercorn of €500, in co-ownership deal. In May 2012 Dellafiore returned to Internazionale for its Indonesia friendly tour in a 1-month loan. In June 2012 Dellafiore returned to Parma for €250,000,[13] which also cost Parma an additional €200,000 as other fee.[14]

Siena

In late June to 1 July 2012, Dellafiore was involved in 8-men swap with Siena, which saw Coppola, Dellafiore, Doumbia and Galuppo went to Siena, with Brandão, Pacini, Rossi and Iacobucci went to Parma. Non of the new players actually played for Parma, only able to bring financial success to both clubs. [nb 1]

Dellafiore himself failed to play regularly for Siena in Serie A, only able to play twice before left for his first Serie B club Padova in temporary deal.[19] At the end of season Siena relegated, which Dellafiore followed the club for the new season.

Dellafiore made his best season with Siena in 2013–14 Serie B, in terms of total appearances of 35 Serie B games. At the end of season the co-ownership between Siena and Parma was renewed again, however Siena was expelled from Serie B due to financial difficulties. Dellafiore became a free agent soon after.

Latina

On 23 July 2014 Dellafiore was signed by Serie B club Latina[20] along with former Siena team-mate Ângelo, Farelli and Valiani.

He made his U21 debut on 11 October 2005 against Moldova U21, he received his second cap for the Olympic team (de facto U21 team) at 2008 Toulon Tournament.
