Arriving from Blagnac, Aldegheri joined the Toulouse academy in 2007. He developed quickly as a tight head with bags of potential.

After a full 17-18 season with 26 appearances overall competitions, Dorian Aldegheri cemented himself as a regular in the side.

An injury in the fall of 2018, hindered his rapid rise as he was sidelined for 2 months.

On his return to fitness, he was selected in the 2018 Six Nations squad. He featured as a substitute 4 times during the competition. However, an injury to his knee ligaments during the last match in Italy ended his season ruling him out of the World Cup in Japan.

He was recalled to the France squad ahead of the 2020 Six Nations with 4 test caps all of which coming in the Six Nations, however, he suffered an injury ahead of the competition and was subsequently ruled out.

Aldegheri was called up in the 2023 Six Nations to play for France against England after two players were banned, both for high tackles. He has been selected to play for France ahead of the 2023 Rugby World Cup.
