Antonio Filippini (born 3 July 1973) is an Italian retired footballer who played mainly as a defensive midfielder.

He played in several teams with his twin brother, Emanuele, and spent most of his extensive career with Brescia, amassing Serie A totals of 303 games and 12 goals over the course of 11 seasons.[1][2]

Football career

Filippini was born in Brescia. Having emerged through hometown Brescia Calcio's youth system he stayed there for eight professional seasons, after having started – on loan – with amateurs Ospitaletto, the first of many teams he shared with his sibling Emanuele. The pair made their Serie A debut on 31 August 1997, in a 1–2 away loss against Inter Milan.[3]

In January 2004 Filippini moved to the second division with U.S. Città di Palermo,[4] being crucial to the Sicilians' promotion, with 21 matches in only five months.

After a solid campaign with S.S. Lazio and a year with lowly Treviso F.B.C. 1993,[5] Filippini signed with A.S. Livorno Calcio on a free transfer in 2006, being rejoined by Emanuele (also his teammate at Lazio and Treviso) the following year and helping the club return to the top flight in his third season, with 24 matches and one goal.

Filippini rejoined Brescia's for 2010–11, after 18 years.[6] Following the club's top level relegation, he retired in June 2011 at the age of 38.

On 25 June 2012, it was announced that both brothers would join lower league club FeralpiSalò as youth system coordinators.[7]
