Antonio Filippini has returned to his hometown club Brescia for a trial.

The 37-year-old is currently a free agent after his contract with Livorno ended this summer. Filippini featured for the Rondinelle between 1995 and 2004, making over 250 appearances for the club.

“Tomorrow I will begin training with Brescia and I hope we can reach an agreement,” Filippini told Sky Sport 24. “We already talked about a one-season contract. After all, I am 37 and wouldn't really ask for any more than that.

“The important thing is to return to Brescia and wear the jersey of my 'second' club, as technically my career started with Ospitaletto.

“Before Brescia gained promotion, I called president Gino Corioni to tell him I was available. I am a Brescia native and wanted to make this dream come true. I'm very happy,” he concluded.
