Without playing for half a year, since leaving Major League Soccer (MLS) Toronto, Lorenzo Insigne is back in Italy. The 34-year-old striker was made official this Friday as a reinforcement for Pescara, one of the first clubs in his career. Insigne was very happy at Pescara in 2011/12, on loan from Napoli, alongside names like Ciro Immobile and Marco Verratti. During that season, he scored 20 goals and provided 13 assists, making a decisive contribution to winning Serie B. However, the scenario is much more complicated at this moment. Pescara is last placed in the Italian second tier, with just 14 points, six points away from the places that guarantee permanence. Furthermore, Insigne signed a contract until the end of the season and has the option to renew for another year, if Pescara does not fall to Serie C.
