Throughout his career, Dell'Omodarme played for Italian clubs Juventus, Parma, Como, and SPAL, before retiring with the Rochester Lancers in the American Soccer League. Despite his talent, he experienced mixed success during his two spells with Juventus, winning the Coppa Italia in 1965, but also undergoing criticism due to his inconsistency and individualistic playing style.[2][3]
A skilful winger, Dell'Omodarme was known in particular for his excellent dribbling skills as a footballer, although he was also criticised for being selfish and for his work-rate.[2][3][4]
