      • Antonio Filippini (born 3 July 1973) is an Italian football coach and a former player who played mainly as a defensive midfielder, currently in charge as head coach of Genoa Women of Serie B.

      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.
      In January 2004, Filippini moved to the Serie B with U.S. Città di Palermo. He was 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, 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 side 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. Following the team's top level relegation, he retired in June 2011 at the age of 38.
