Career
editBorn in Vicenza, Veneto region, Rabito was a youth product of Lombard team A.C. Milan. He was loaned to Serie C1 club Reggiana in 2000–01 and Serie B club Modena in 2001–02, along with Maurizio Domizzi. On 21 June 2002 Rabito and Domizzi were sold to second division club Sampdoria in co-ownership deal for 2,005 million lire (€1.035 million) each.[1] In June 2003 Milan bought back Rabito for undisclosed fee as well as sold Domizzi outright for another €4 million.[1] However Rabito was signed by AlbinoLeffe in 2006 for a €1,000, which after 3 years of amortization, he still had a residual contract value of €957,000 on 15 July on Milan's balance sheet.[2]
In 2001–02, 2002–03 and 2003–04 seasons he won promotion to Serie A with his clubs (but each time transferred to another team before the next season, not getting any top-level experience). For the next few seasons his teams did not have much success.
In 2007, he was signed by Padova in another co-ownership deal for €15,000.[3][4] In June 2008 Padova acquired him outright for another €45,000.[4][5]
In the 2008–09 season, he scored a hat-trick in the first game of the season and ended the season second-best Calcio Padova scorer with 9 goals, contributing significantly to Padova getting a promotion to Serie B.
