Football career

Early career

Colombo was the product of A.C. Milan youth ranks. He was on loan to Valdagno (Serie C2), Fiorenzuola (Serie C1), Solbiatese (Serie C2) and Monza (Serie B), before joining Milan's first team in the first half of the 1999–00 season.

He played 126 league games for the club before joining San Marino Calcio (Serie C1). In San Marino, he just missed one Serie C1 game, out of 34 (plus two relegation playoff ties).

In May 2010, at the end of Serie A season, he was borrowed by A.C. Milan for a club friendly against D.C. United.[1]
