However, on 1 February 2010 he returned to Cagliari, 5 months earlier, on a temporary deal for €1.2 million loan fee.[5] [7] Triestina also acquired Agazzi outright for €500.[5] [8] Co-currently, Triestina signed Alex Calderoni as a replacement.[9] On 21 June 2010, Cagliari signed the keeper outright from the relegated side for €50,000 fee.[5] [10] (later Triestina was re-admitted to Serie B)[11]

He became the first choice goalkeeper for Cagliari in 2010–11 season after the original one, Federico Marchetti, was frozen by the club as punishment. Ivan Pelizzoli, former internationals, also hinted he is the backup of Agazzi instead of Marchetti at the start of season.[12] In July 2011 he signed a new 3-year contract with the Serie A club.[13]
