Del Castillo started his senior career with Independiente in 2016.[1] On 3 July, del Castillo joined Deportivo Morón of Primera B Metropolitana on loan.[2] He made his professional debut on 3 September in a 2–1 victory over Estudiantes, which was the first of six appearances in all competitions for the club.[1] Ahead of the 2017–18 season, del Castillo signed for Primera B Metropolitana side Defensores de Belgrano.[3] Just two appearances followed, with both occurring off the bench in March during home matches with Villa San Carlos and San Telmo.[1] He returned to his parent club in June 2018.[1]
After twelve months in Independiente's reserves, a spell which also saw the forward extend his contract, del Castillo was loaned out to Tristán Suárez in July 2019.[1][4][5] His debut arrived in October against Los Andes, which would be his only match for them.[1] Upon returning to Independiente, he again signed a new contract in August 2020.[6] del Castillo made an Independiente competitive, first-team teamsheet for the first time on 1 November, though wasn't selected to come on in a Copa de la Liga Profesional win over Central Córdoba.[7] His debut for the club soon arrived in that competition, as he appeared for the final moments of a 1–0 win over Defensa y Justicia on 6 December.[8]
Del Castillo represented Argentina U17s at the 2013 South American Under-17 Football Championship, winning one cap against Venezuela.[1]
Del Castillo is the brother of fellow footballers Gastón del Castillo and Sergio Agüero.[9]
