Fiorentina

On 30 August 2005, Brivio left Atalanta, who had just been relegated to Serie B, to join Fiorentina, who purchased half of the player's license, for €1 million.^[1]

Brivio made his Serie A debut on 15 April 2006 at home to Treviso. He played another match on 7 April 2007 against Ascoli.

Atalanta bought back all Brivio's ownership rights from Fiorentina during the summer of 2007 by blind auction for €516,000.^[1]

Vicenza and Lecce

On 7 August 2007, he was sold to Vicenza in another joint-ownership arrangement, as part of a deal that brought Simone Padoin back to Atalanta. 50% registration rights of Brivio was valued €900,000 at that time, while 50% rights of Padoin was valued for €1.9 million.^[2] On 4 January 2008 Vicenza acquired Brivio outright for another €750,000.^[2] On the same day Vicenza also acquired Zampagna for €1.9 million,^[2]^[3] as well as sold Padoin outright for €1.55 million.^[2] The overall transactions made Vicenza paid €100,000 cash in net, and the full registration rights of Padoin to Atalanta in order to acquire Brivio and Zampagna.

After helping Lecce escape relegation in 2010–11 Serie A, Lecce bought the remain 50% registration rights for €750,000. Co-currently, Vicenza excised the option to sign Schiavi outright for the same price, made the deal a direct cashless swap.^[5]
