INFO:Agostini is a former left-back. His career began in 1998 at Pistoiese. He then played for Ternana, Fiorentina, Empoli and Siena. He eventually had his best time at Cagliari, where he made 298 appearances from January 2004 to 2012. He retired in 2015 after a three-year experience with Hellas Verona.
A solid left-back, Agostini has the peculiarity of having never scored a goal in Serie A ─ his only goal came in the 1999-2000 Serie B ─ even though he was good in supporting the forward line. In fact, he moved constantly up and down his left flank to cover it. He ran at solid pace, made good accelerations to recover a ball, showed decent technical skill, and sometimes reached the goal-line to provide fine crosses at high speed. His good form, tenacity and remarkable stamina allowed him to be a starter in most matches, especially during the 2004-05 season, always giving good support to his team, to the point that his presence gave the team no need to sign a reserve left-back for several years.
