Born in Monza, in the Milan metropolitan area, Fossati started playing football as a child with amateur team Cimiano in 2001,[2] before joining A.C. Milan's youth system at the start of the 2002–03 season.[3] Five years later he left for city rival Internazionale,[4] where he went on to spend three seasons, playing for the Allievi (under-17) and Primavera (under-20) sides,[5][6][7] as well as making three appearances with the first team in friendly matches.[8][9][10] However, in July 2010 Fossati was transferred back to Milan, along with Attila Filkor and Cristian Daminuţă,[11] for a total fee of €7 million.[12] He spent the 2010–11 season playing for Milan's Primavera (under-20) side.[13]
At the start of the 2011–12 season Fossati was sent out on loan to Lega Pro Prima Divisione club Latina,[14] making his official debut for the club on 4 September 2011, in a 1–1 draw against Siracusa.[15] He went on to score two goals in 22 league appearances. The following season, Fossati joined Serie B side Ascoli on another loan spell.[16] For the 2013–14 campaign he moved to Bari, another Serie B club, once again on a loan deal.[17]
On 24 June 2015, Fossati joined Cagliari on a three-year contract.[18] After a season he left the club.
On 8 June 2016, Fossati was signed by Verona on loan, with an obligation to sign. As part of the deal, goalkeeper Rafael moved to opposite direction in a definitive deal.[19] On 20 June 2017, Cagliari confirmed the selling of Fossati to Verona outright.[20]
On 5 January 2019, he signed a one-and-a-half-year contract with Monza.[21]
On 11 February 2021, Fossati was sent on a six-month loan to Croatian First Football League side HNK Hajduk Split.[22] He joined Hajduk Split permanently on 31 August.[23]
On 23 September 2023, Fossati joined Romanian Liga I club Universitatea Cluj.[24]
On 23 August 2024, Fossati signed with AlbinoLeffe in Serie C.[25]
Fossati started his youth international career in a training camp for players born in 1992 and 1993.[26] He then played his first match in Saarland quadrangular tournament.[27] He played all three matches in 2009 U-17 Euro qualifying,[28][29][30] and all three matches in the elite round. In the final round Azzurrini lost to Germany in semi-final, but still qualified for 2009 FIFA U-17 World Cup. At the World Junior Cup, he played all five matches. After a call-up to Italy U-19 team in September 2010, he never received a call-up again.[31]
Fossati returned to international teams from 2012 to 2013.
