Having come through the youth ranks of Juventus, Nicolussi made his Serie C debut for Juventus U23 on 27 September 2018 in a game against Cuneo as an 88th-minute substitute for Idrissa Toure.

However, on 15 December, during a training session, Nicolussi tore his ACL and needed to end his season early. Prior to this injury, Nicolussi had only been fielded twice: the other match he played was a 2–1 win Coppa Italia against Cosenza on 25 November.

On 18 August 2021, he had a meniscus tear. On 30 October, Nicolussi returned being called up for a match after the two injuries in a Juventus U23 match against Sudtirol set to be played the following day. Against the same opponents, on 3 November, he returned playing after his injuries in a 2–1 Coppa Italia Serie C defeat, coming on as substitute in the 58th minute and scoring a goal four minutes later; he had not been playing since 25 November 2020. Nicolussi suffered a new knee injury on 20 November, during a match against Fiorenzuola. He was kept far from the pitch until 4 May 2022, when he first entered the field in a match against Pro Vercelli. On 10 May, Nicolussi was first called up since his injuries by the first team for the 2022 Coppa Italia Final.

On 12 July 2022, he was sent on loan to Serie B side Sudtirol, thus re-uniting with head coach Lamberto Zauli, who had worked with him at Juventus U23 in the previous season.
