Football: Take away half of Boss Mei's skills at the beginning

Soon, Vicario signed a three-year contract. If Parma fails to upgrade this year, he will have the right to terminate the contract.

Parma also gave Vicario's old club 100,000 euros in youth training compensation.

Although 100,000 euros is not much, it is already one-fifth of Parma's transfer budget this summer.

Because they still have to repay a loan of more than one million euros, they can only live frugally this year.

If it weren't for the fans' contribution to a lot of box office revenue last year, they wouldn't even have this budget.

And then, they can only hold 400,000 huge sums of money and start various reinforcements.

After getting the goalkeeper, Parma turned their attention to Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Federico Gatti.

The only difference from Vicario is that both of them now have contracts.

Both of them are now playing in Serie C, one for Matera Club and the other for Alessandria Club.

Matera Club resolutely rejected Parma's purchase request. In their view, Di Lorenzo is an indispensable member of their team, and they cannot sell this player to a direct competitor.

In desperation, Parma can only focus on Gatti.

Fortunately, Magalini, the director of Alessandria Club, is easy to talk to. They argued with Parma for a while and finally transferred Gatti to Parma for 100,000 euros.

Now they only have 300,000 euros left.

And they still need to strengthen many positions.

First of all, they need to find a center forward.

The one who entered their field of vision was a 34-year-old player named Karaiou.

He is also an old acquaintance in Serie A. He was also Siena's top scorer at the time. His ability was still very good at his peak.

Although he is now old, he should have no problem playing in Serie C.

Karaiou is now a free agent. After Scala invited him, he did not think much about it and decided to join Parma Club.

Parma Club also offered a one-year contract with a weekly salary of 4,000 euros.

A center forward obviously cannot meet Parma's requirements, so they have to continue looking for a striker.

At this time, Alessandro thought of someone.

Alberto Cheri.

He is a genius produced by Parma's youth training, but he chose to leave when Parma went bankrupt last year and now plays for Juventus.

Now he can't play in Juventus, and Juventus also wants to loan him out.

When Scala called Juventus General Manager Marotta, Marotta hesitated: "Scala, to be honest, we still want to loan Cheri to Serie B. After all, the level of Serie B is higher, which is more beneficial to Cheri's growth."

They are also old acquaintances, and Marotta also feels a little embarrassed.

Scala also expressed his understanding: "I can understand this, but we can ask the player himself about his wishes, what if he agrees?"

Marotta said: "Well, if Cherry agrees, then we have no reason to refuse."

So Marotta contacted Cherry: "Alberto, Parma wants to rent you just now, I wonder if you are willing to join them?"

Cherry did not hesitate: "Of course I am willing!"

He is a native of Parma. Although he left Parma last year, he is very willing to play for the team again.

Marotta did not expect his willingness to be so strong, so he did not set any obstacles for them.

In the end, Alberto Cherry joined Parma on loan for one year, and Parma assumed 80% of his salary, 800 euros per week.

When Parma officially announced the deal, countless Parma people were also excited.

After all, this is their own child. Although he did not stick to the team like Alessandro, he chose to rush to the team at this time, so they were willing to welcome him and accept him.

After settling on the front line, Parma's next task was to fill in the midfield and left back.

Mateo recommended another person to Alessandro at this time.

This person's name is Andrea Cambiasso, who was also a very popular left back in Serie A in the future and eventually joined Juventus.

He is still playing for Genoa's youth team. At the age of sixteen and a half, he obviously does not have the ability to enter the first team.

And he is now playing as a left midfielder, and he has no particularly outstanding performance, so Genoa released him to Parma after receiving a compensation of 50,000 euros.

In this way, Parma's back line and front line are finally settled.

However, there is no suitable person in the midfield line now, so they can only go for various exchanges and loans.Matteo didn't have a suitable candidate in mind. After all, Parma couldn't afford the candidates he could think of, and he didn't like the ones Parma could afford...

And Scala's main target for the midfield was the players who played in Serie B last season. He believed that players with high-level game experience could help the team better.

So, a 33-year-old midfielder named Gianni Munari came into his sight.

Munari played for Parma, which was still in Serie A in the 2013-2014 season, although he was not a main player at the time.

Now Parma is in Serie C, and he is three years older, so the two are a good match.

So they hit it off, and Munari signed a two-year contract with Parma, with a salary of 3,500 euros per week.

In addition, they found a 28-year-old player named Matteo Sozafitte, who also played in Serie B last season. This season, his contract expired. Scala persuaded him with his eloquence, and he finally agreed to sign a three-year contract with Parma, with a weekly salary of 4,900 euros.

In this way, the two main midfielders have also been settled.

Last season, Parma mainly played 442, so the main lineup is still missing two wingers.

For the left winger, Scala found a player named Luigi Alberto Scalia, who played for Latina in Serie B last season and became a free agent at the end of the season.

The two parties signed a three-year contract with a weekly salary of 2,300 euros.

Now Parma's main lineup is only missing a right winger.

At this time, a message suddenly came from the Matera Club.

Di Lorenzo heard that Parma was interested in him, so he asked the Matera Club to agree to Parma's offer for him.

After all, Parma is a larger club, and it is only more than 100 kilometers away from his hometown, Castel Nuovo Garfagnana, which is undoubtedly more attractive than Matera, which is more than 800 kilometers away from his hometown.

In desperation, the Matera Club could only contact Parma, hoping to restart the negotiations with Di Lorenzo.

Finally, the two sides reached an agreement on a price of 150,000 euros, and Di Lorenzo successfully joined Parma. The two sides signed a four-year contract with a weekly salary of 3,000 euros.

Di Lorenzo can play as a right back, and Klaus can be pushed forward to play as a right winger.

And Parma's huge sum of 400,000 euros was only 100,000 euros left.

But they finally put together a set of starting lineups that looked pretty good.

Vicario, Di Lorenzo, Gatti, Alessandro, Cambiasso, Klaus, Munari, Sozafit, Scalia, Karaiou and Cheri.

As long as they get some more substitutes, they should be able to cope with the Serie C game!
