Gastaldello was bought by Juventus in 2002 from Serie C2 side Calcio Padova; in that season he played in the Primavera squad. In 2003 season he was involved in a transfer with Nicola Legrottaglie. He was sold to Chievo along with Matteo Paro and Giuseppe Sculli.[3] He was loaned to Crotone in January 2004. In 2005, he was bought back, but Juventus sold him in a co-ownership deal to Siena for €450,000.[4] Matteo Paro also joined Siena. In 2007, Juventus bought Siena's half for €650,000 and sold Gastaldello to Sampdoria for €1.25 million.
