Career
[edit]Club career
[edit]A product of the Rosanero's youth system, Cossentino made his first team debut with the Rosanero being featured in the starter lineup in a Coppa Italia 2006-07 match against Sampdoria, and then a 2006–07 UEFA Cup game against Fenerbahçe. He was confirmed to the Rosanero first team squad also for the 2007–08 campaign, and finally made his Serie A debut on 30 March 2008 at Stadio San Paolo, against Napoli.[1]
In July 2008 Cossentino accepted a loan to Serie B side Triestina in order to gain more first team experience.[2] However, he did not manage to play a single match for the alabardati, and returned to Palermo in January 2009.[3][4]
In July 2009 Cossentino agreed another move on loan, and spent the 2009–10 season with Lega Pro Prima Divisione side Novara,[5] where he played only six games throughout a season that ended with his side winning the league and ensuring promotion to Serie B. In July 2010 Palermo announced to have sold half of Cossentino's registration rights to Novara.[6] On 29 January 2011 he was loaned to Gela.[7] Cossentino made his second comeback to Novara in June 2011, as his co-ownership was solved in favour of the piemontesi. On 30 August 2011 he moved on loan to Andria BAT.
On 13 July 2012, he joined Reggiana on a permanent deal. He was released on 7 January 2015.[8]
He joined Modena for the 2016–17 season, but was released later in January 2017 and successively signed by another Lega Pro club, Siracusa, on 2 February 2017 as a free transfer.[9]
In June 2019, Cossentino joined Torres.[10]
In October 2020 he signed for Eccellenza Sicily amateurs Don Carlo Misilmeri.[11]
International career
[edit]Cossentino has also appeared for the Italian team at Under-19 and Under-20 level.[12]
