Castellana began his career in the youth system of Standard Liège. In 2005, he signed his first professional contract with Dutch second‐tier club MVV Maastricht in the Eerste Divisie. He made his professional league debut on 23 September 2005 in a 2–0 home win over VVV-Venlo, coming on as an 87th‐minute substitute for Tom van Bergen.[1]
After seven years with MVV, Castellana joined Bulgarian club Etar 1924 in January 2013. He scored his first goal for the club on 10 April, opening the scoring in a 6–1 defeat against Litex in an A PFG match.[2] He left the club at the end of the season.
In July 2013, Castellana returned to Belgium, signing for Charleroi Fleurus.[3] A season later, he moved to Châtelet, where he played for five years.[4]
Ahead of the 2019–20 season, Castellana joined Olympic Charleroi.[5] In June 2019, he moved to RUFC Ransartoise.[6]
