The young forward belonging to the leaders of the English Premier League is being loaned to struggling Serie A outsider team until the end of the season by the club's decision. The Italian started his career in this team. G.Rossi spent the first part of this season at Newcastle, where he was also loaned out. However, he did not fit in with the "Magpies" team, appeared in only three Premier League matches, and scored 1 goal in the League Cup.
Although "Man Utd" coach Alex Ferguson declared just before the new year that the Italian forward would not be loaned to anyone in the second part of the season, his decision could have been influenced by signing a contract with Chinese talent, Dong Fangzhou. Even though the 19-year-old forward cannot help the "Parma" team in the UEFA Cup tournament as he was already registered in the tournament as a Newcastle player, it seems he will have something to do in Parma.
"Giuseppe is a very talented forward. On the field, we have assigned him a place alongside the other forward, Zlatan Muslimovic, which will give more playing freedom to attacking midfielder Domenico Morfeo," said the Italian team's coach Stefano Pioli.
At the moment, "Parma" is going through difficult times. In the Italian championship, they are only in 19th place, and recently it was announced that after the main sponsor, the corporation "Parmalat", went bankrupt, the club will be sold at an auction.
It was in this team that Giuseppe Rossi began his career in the youth team. In 2004, he was bought for about 300 thousand euros by "Man Utd". The Italian was a strong leader of Manchester's reserve team for two years. G.Rossi has also represented all age groups of Italy's youth national teams.
