This is why I am happy that after months of dialogue with my agents and the Club, we have found a wonderful agreement. I thank my agents, in fact, but also the Directors, President Kyle J. Krause and all my teammates with the technical staff. I’m happy to be able to continue my experience in Parma because I feel I still have to demonstrate and give a lot to our fans. When I experienced my most difficult moment, when things seemed to be going badly, I felt everyone’s trust in me and a great desire to believe in my work. This was the strength of my growth and my restart.”
