The words of Matteo Cancellieri: 'When I arrived at Parma, what impressed me the most, apart from the warm welcome, were the images of the great footballers who have played here. I think this is an extraordinary motivation for a young player like me, to be able to measure myself against such a glorious history while striving to create a great present with these colours. I feel like I'm in the right place at the right time for my career, and I felt a positive vibe as soon as I arrived. My personal goal is to establish myself in Serie A, giving my best for the team and the fans. I chose to come here because I believe in the manager's project and his staff, who value wide players a lot, and I think it’s a style of play that suits my characteristics well. I’m eager to get started, to work hard with all my teammates, and to help bring Parma to where it deserves to be'.
Sporting Director Mauro Pederzoli's Statement: 'Matteo is a young talent who embodies one of the key qualities we look for in a player. Alongside his youth, he combines talent, which is another crucial factor in our transfer evaluations. We were impressed by his determination and his desire to be here, and we are delighted to welcome him to our family. We are confident that his qualities, when applied for the benefit of the team, can be decisive in the journey we are embarking on in Serie A, a league he already knows very well'.
