Born in Milan, Gobbi started his senior career in fourth-tier Serie C2 club Pro Sesto in 1998.
He moved to second-tier Serie B club Treviso in 1999, from where he was loaned out to Giugliano (Serie C2) and AlbinoLeffe (Serie C1). He returned to Treviso in 2003, where he got his breakthrough. He played 44 of 46 games for the club during the 2003–04 Serie B season, after which he moved to the newly promoted club Cagliari Calcio in the top-flight Serie A championship.

In June 2006, Gobbi was bought back by Treviso but sold to Fiorentina along with Reginaldo on 24 June, and Treviso signed Gianni Guigou as part of the deal. At that time Gobbi was valued €4.3M (costed Viola €4.54M), while Guigou was valued €40,000.

On 1 July 2010 he became a free agent, before joining Parma on 18 August 2010. Initially deployed in his natural role as a central midfielder, Gobbi's first season at the club saw him become a regular as a left-back from December 2010 onwards as a consequence of Luca Antonelli's January 2011 departure.
