The 43-year old Socceroos striker has returned home to Melbourne following a one-year stint with reigning A-League champions Brisbane Roar where he held a similar position.
Trimboli has reunited with former Roar coach Ange Postecoglou at the Victory and is excited about the challenge ahead with his hometown club.
"Melbourne Victory's fans are quite remarkable and they crave success, so it's a great challenge and one that I'm extremely excited about.
"Ange and I have known one another for a very long time, so to be able to continue working alongside him - albeit at a different club - is a fantastic result for me.""While I enjoyed my time with Brisbane Roar and made many great friends, Melbourne was always home, so when this opportunity presented itself, I felt that it was the right one for me," he said.
