Cocco made his Serie A debut on 21 December 2005 for Cagliari in a 1-0 defeat away to Parma F.C.. On 31 January 2007 he left for Venezia.[1] and on 31 August 2007 for Pistoiese.[2]

He was sold to Rovigo in co-ownership deal in 2008-09 season,[3] And in 2009-10 season left for Alghero along with Andrea Peana[4] and Simone Aresti in co-ownership deal, where he also met ex-team-mate Alessio Cossu, Nicola Lai and Enrico Cotza (in January). In June 2010, few week before the bankrupt of Alghero, Cagliari bought back Cocco and Aresti for €500.[5]

AlbinoLeffe

Few days after Cagliari signed Gabriele Perico and Simon Laner from AlbinoLeffe in temporary deal for €750,000,[6] Cocco was sold to AlbinoLeffe in co-ownership deal for €50,000 in 3-year deal.[6][7] In June 2011 Cagliari bought back Cocco for €150,000.[6] On 4 July 2011 Cocco returned to AlbinoLeffe in temporary deal with option to sign outright for €200,000.[8][9] Despite the club relegated, the option was excised. [10] On the same day Perico was acquired outright for another €200,000.
