About Parma FC
There is a city, a relatively small city - some say it’s still more a town than a city - in northern Italy. That city had a football club dated back a hundred years ago. That city also had a world-famous dairy factory, that owned and supported the club. At its height, the team was loaded with exciting, creative players and playing an all-out, attacking football. It was fun to watch. Being a fan or not, everybody had to love it. And then it all came crumbling down and the team vanished into Italy’s lower leagues. There was a big questions mark hanging above the club’s ability to exist.
Now the club, once known simply as Parma and now Parma Calcio 1913, is back to Serie A for the 2024-25 season. Every football fan around the world must feel satisfied and happy for the club and the city. Because this story, at least for now, finally has a happy ending.
Parma was founded in 1913 under the name of Verdi Football Club in honor of famed composer Giuseppe Verdi, himself a native of the city of Parma. Parma first advanced to Serie A in 1990, under manager Nevio Scala. The 90’s were a splendid time for Italian football and the club was purchased by diary factory conglomerate Parmalat, who poured money in. Stadio Ennio Tardini was suddenly the place to be. And players did come. Swede Tomas Brolin spent five years in Parma Italian defender Antonio Benarrivo recorded 258 matches in 13 seasons Colombian wide-man Faustino Asprilla scored 25 goals in 85 matches between 1992-1996, before coming back for a second term Middle of the park maestro Gianfranco Zola came from Napoli in 1993, had five wonderful season, scoring 49 goals in 104 matches Dino Baggio came from Juventus in 1994 and put in 179 matches Argentinian defender Roberto Sensini came in 1993 and stayed for six seasons Two years later, defensive ace Fabio Cannavaro came from Napoli Goalkeeper wonder Gianluigi Buffon came through the youth ranks and recorded 168 matches between 1995-2001 before being sold to Juventus is what is still a record fee for a goalkeeper Argentinian striker Hernan Crespo scored 62 goals in 116 matches between 1996-2000 France world cup winner Lilian Thuram came in the same year from Monaco and played 163 matches before moving to Juventus, and the list goes on and on.
The trophies, other than the Scudetto, started coming in. First was a Coppa Italia in 1991-92, after a win over Juventus, followed by a European Cup Winners’ Cup.
In 1996, Scala was replaced behind the lines by former Parma midfielder Carlo Ancelotti, in only his second coaching job. Parma didn’t stop. The team reached its highest table position - 2nd place in 1997, and a year later won the Coppa Italia and the UEFA Cup.
In 2003 Parmalat went under and so did Parma.
The club has resurfaced several times under different names, but it was to no avail. It finally went bankrupt in 2015 due to debts of over 200 million dollars, and was relegated in Serie D. From there it started the climb up.
Parma was reborn (again) in 2015 by local businessmen as Parma Calcio 1913, together with a Chinese group, who purchased 60% of the club's shares. In 2020, the club was purchased by an American businessman.
Parma plays its home matches in ancient, 27,906-seat Stadio Ennio Tardini.
