Early career
Born in Udine, Friuli, Noselli started his career at hometown club Udinese Calcio. Noselli graduated from Primavera under-20 reserve team in 2000. That transfer window he left for Castel di Sangro of Serie C1. In mid-2001 he left for Avellino, but Noselli failed to play any game.
South Tyrol
In October 2001 Noselli went down to Serie C2 club South Tyrol. Noselli scored a double figure of 10 goals, the first time in his career. In Bolzano, he partnered with another Udine youth product Simone Motta. Udinese turned the deal to co-ownership on 30 August 2002. On that day Udinese bought back Noselli from South Tyrol and re-sold him back to South Tyrol, made South Tyrol was the "active" stakeholder and Udinese was the "passive" one.
Triestina
In June 2003 the co-ownership deal was renewed, and Udinese farmed Noselli to Serie B club Triestina in July 2003. The club was located in Trieste, the capital of Friuli – Venezia Giulia, where city of Udine is also located. Noselli picked no.32 as shirt number. However Noselli failed to enter the starting XI and scored once. Both South Tyrol and Udinese failed to agree a price before the deadline on 23 June, thus they had to submit a bid to Lega Calcio in a sealed envelop. In the next day the league committee announced that South Tyrol outbid Udinese. However the tiny Serie C2 club sold Noselli to Mantova, the champion of Serie C2 Group A.

Noselli scored an impressive 16 Serie B goals, his career high. His attacking partners, Riccardo Zampagna, Gaetano Masucci, Horacio Erpen, scored 11 goals, 4 goals and 3 goals respectively.

Noselli lost his starting place in 2010–11 Serie B. Neither Masucci nor Noselli were the favourite of the coach. Noselli only made 14 starts in half-season. Daniele Arrigoni (and later Angelo Gregucci) used Martinetti and Quadrini as the starting forwards, plus Masucci and Noselli compete the last place.
