2006–09

In the next season Bellodi swapped the role with Pierluigi Brivio, which Brivio now on the field and Bellodi on the bench. [1] Brivio left the club in 2007 but the first choice role was shared by Jasmin Handanović and Gianluca Pegolo. [2] J.Handanović became the absolute starter in 2008–09 Serie B, with only 2 games played by Bellodi.

2009–10

In 2009–10 Serie B, Bellodi competed with J.Handanović again for the starting role. That season Mantova relegated directly with Bellodi conceded lesser goals per game. Before last round of 2009–10 season, Mantova still one point behind Calcio Padova of 19th place, thus certainly entered relegation "play-out" or direction relegation. Eventually the away match was 2–2 draw with Ancona, with Bellodi conceded a goal on 8th minute and conceded an equalizer goal from Mastronunzio again. [3] Ancona collected enough point to survive in Serie B but later expelled due to financial difficulties and Mantova relegated directly with 3 points gap with Triestina and Padova, as Padova had an early lead in half time, so Mantova still had 1 point short if Mantova won.

2010–12

Mantova also bankrupted in summer 2010 and a new entity was admitted to 2010–11 Serie D. Bellodi also joined the new club and played 18 times. He shared the starting role with Stefano Portesi. The club won the group B of the amateur league and promoted again. Bellodi played the first 18 rounds in 2011–12 Lega Pro Seconda Divisione, with Marco Festa (14 starts) and Portesi (6 starts) played the rest. Bellodi retired in January 2012.
