Career

Born in Buenos Aires, Di Noia played for Sacachispas and Sportivo Barracas before retiring, and subsequently worked at media outlets in Argentina and Colombia. He began his coaching career in 2015, after being a member of Fernando Batista's staff in the youth categories of Argentinos Juniors. [1]

In the following two years, Di Noia was an assistant of Hugo Tocalli at San Lorenzo, and Pablo de Muner at Independiente Rivadavia, before reuniting with Batista in 2018, as a manager of the Armenia national under-17 team. He later worked at Defensa y Justicia's youth sides, before moving to Ecuador in January 2020 to work as LDU Quito's reserve team manager.

On 16 June 2021, Di Noia was named interim manager of LDU, after Pablo Repetto left. [2] He led the side in the 2021 Supercopa Ecuador final, defeating Barcelona SC 1–0 in the final. [3]

Back to his previous role after the arrival of Pablo Marini, Di Noia worked as an assistant of Alfredo Berti at Barracas Central in 2022, before being appointed Tristán Suárez on 6 March 2023. [4] On 24 July, however, he was sacked. [5]

In April 2024, Di Noia moved to Uruguay after being named at the helm of Sud América. [6] He left after suffering relegation, and was appointed Deportivo Maldonado manager on 10 September 2025. [7]
