Eduardo Filippini (born June 5, 1983, in Formosa, Argentina) is an Argentine footballer who plays for Guaraní of the Primera Division in Paraguay.

Career[edit]

Although he was born in Formosa, Argentina (located near the border with Paraguay), Filippini's ancestors were Paraguayan. After a spell with Club 2 de Mayo, Filippini returned to Guaraní in 2008.[1]

In 2010, after five years playing football for clubs in Paraguay, Filippini became a naturalized Paraguayan citizen in hopes of representing the Paraguay national football team.[2]

Personal[edit]

His older brother, Valentín Filippini, is also a professional footballer.[1]
