Di Giacomo scored on his début for Ross County against his old club Airdrie United in the opening game of the 09/10 season.[5] He continued his good start to the opening season with a goal against Inverness C.T.[6]
He joined Greenock Morton in June 2011,[7] and scored four goals on his début against Stranraer in the Challenge Cup. On 1 May 2012, Di Giacomo confirmed that he would leave the club at the end of the season to go part-time.[8] In July 2012, he signed for former club Airdrie United.[9] His contract with Airdrie United was terminated by mutual consent in April 2013.
