In July 2022, after graduating from the AC Milan youth academy, Nasti joined Serie B club Cosenza on a one-year loan.[1]
On 16 July 2023, he joined Serie B club Bari, on a season-long loan.[2] He scored his first goal for Bari on 30 August 2023 against Cittadella.
He represented Italy at the 2022 UEFA European Under-19 Championship, where Italy reached the semi-final.[3]
Nasti was included in Carmine Nunziata’s Italy U21 squad for 2025 Euro U21 Championship qualification, debuting in a scoreless draw against Latvia on 8 September 2023.[4] He scored his first goal in Italy’s subsequent qualifier on 12 September 2023, striking a half-volley from near midfield that eluded Turkey's Doğan Alemdar to seal a 2-0 win.[5]
On 13 October 2023, Nasti was involved in a violent row with Atalanta's Matteo Ruggeri that saw the Bari forward punch Ruggeri in the face, breaking his nose. Nasti publicly apologized for his behavior, but was nonetheless cut from the squad.[6]
