Former Inter Milan and Fiorentina midfielder Borja Valero is coming out of retirement.

Valero, who is settled in Florence, has agreed to turn out for the local club Centro Storico Lebowski, which play in the Italian sixth division.

The Spaniard was convinced to commit to the minnows after a social media campaign.

Centro Storico Lebowski is a club managed by its own fans: 1000 members who take care of all aspects of the team.

Founded in 2010, it went from the Third Category (ninth and last level of football in Italy) to the Promozione: it also boasts a women's team and a free football school for the children of the territory.
