The defender made his debut in 1998 at the age of 16 with Boca Juniors in the Argentine Primera División. In 1999 he was discovered and signed by the top Italian club AC Milan .

The 2001 junior world champion was then awarded from Milan to Spain. He played at Deportivo Alavés in 2001/02 , where the 19-year-old defender scored six goals in 33 games and was considered one of the greatest talents in the Spanish league.

The following season ended with a direct resurgence; here Coloccini came on 37 missions in which he met twice. In the following season he contributed 35 missions (two hits) to the successful relegation of the club from Newcastle upon Tyne .
