Fabbro started his career with Club Atlético Huracán in Argentina before playing for C.S. Emelec of Ecuadorian Serie A, where he appeared in the 2000 Merconorte Cup.[1] He also played for Deportes Concepción of the Chilean Primera División.[1] He played with the Kansas City Wizards of Major League Soccer during their spring training visit to Argentina in early March 2002, scoring twice and assisting once.[1]
Fabbro officially signed for the Wizards in April of the 2002 season as a "discovery player," occupying the club's 18th and final senior roster spot and third and final foreigner spot.[1][2] During his tenure with the Wizards, he scored six goals in sixteen appearances,[3] including a brace against the Dallas Burn on 1 June 2002.[4] He was the first Argentine to ever suit up for the club.[5]
On 21 August 2003, the New England Revolution acquired Fabbro and striker Chris Brown from the Kansas City Wizards in exchange for Wolde Harris, Jorge Gabriel Vázquez, and a conditional SuperDraft pick.[6][7]
Fabbro made his Revolution debut in a 2-1 loss to the LA Galaxy on 23 August 2003.[8] While a member of the Revolution, Fabbro recorded three goals.[8] He scored them in three straight games, all of which were against the MetroStars, on 18 October,[9] 25, and then in game one of the Eastern Conference Semifinal on 1 November.[10] He provided an assist to Pat Noonan in the second leg of the tie, helping the Revolution advance to the Eastern Conference Final for the second time in the club's history.[11]
His brother is the also former footballer Jonathan Fabbro.[12][13]
Fabbro has served as a football agent.[12][14]
