In exchange, Marcello Cottafava (for €420,000[3]) and Dario D'Ambrosio (€340,000)[2] moved to Chievo, also in co-ownership deal.[4] However, Cottafava and D'Ambrosio were loaned back to Triestina in July, co-currently Brighenti and Calliari loaned to the Prima Divisione sides Pergocrema[5] and Lumezzane respectively. He only played 4 times.

Return to Chievo

In January 2010 (which in 2009–10 fiscal year) Brighenti returned to Chievo and D'Ambrosio returned to Triestina in exchange, both for €425,000.[6] In August Cottafava and Calliari also returned to his original clubs respectively (in 2010–11 fiscal year; Cottafava for €210,000, Calliari for €220,000[3]).

Brighenti did not play any game for Chievo in the second half of 2009–10 Serie A. He left the club again at the start of 2010–11 season.
