His first professional team was Carabobo FC, in which he didn't play too much due to his young age. Then he moved to Unión Atlético Maracaibo from which he exit after personal problems with the team. He signed with Deportivo Táchira on 2008, having more action and gaining more recognition to the point of being signed by Club Atlético Huracán from Argentina only to be send back after no official matches with the team because the foreign spots in the team were already full.
On August 2011 Del Valle signed with AJ Auxerre, becoming the first Venezuelan player in the French league, not counting fellow Venezuelan Gabriel Cichero who plays currently in Ligue 2 with RC Lens.
On 25 September 2009 he became the first Venezuelan to score a goal in a FIFA competition, having scored against Nigeria in the 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup. Three days later he managed a hat-trick against Tahiti in the Venezuelan 8–0 victory.
