He spent the 2010–11 season playing for Milan’s Primavera (under-20) side.

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