Pecchia, 48, arrives at Parma after having brought Cremonese back to Serie A. Initially, it was thought that the coach would remain to lead the Lombards even in the top flight, instead there was the separation with an open letter to the city and to the fans: “The strength of a football dream come true, the intensity of an exciting season and a half and the awareness of having fielded everything I had and even more, push me to make the decision to leave the Cremo bench, giving space for new energies – he wrote -. I leave with a heart full of joy and pride for the extraordinary path that has just ended, for the constant evolution of my players and for having achieved a goal expected for 26 years, writing a fundamental page in history of the Cremo “.

Fabio Pecchia has chosen to stay in Serie B for another great challenge, to try to win a second promotion. With an ambitious team, which again has a desire for great football, but which has returned from a disappointing season, closed without ever being able to get close to the playoff zone. With Pecchia come the assistant coach Antonio Porta, the goalkeeper trainer Fernando Coppola and the athletic trainer Marco Antonio Ferrone. For Pecchia it is a return, because as a player he was bought by Tanzi’s Parma in the summer of 1993, but he did not stay there and was shot at Napoli as part of the deal that brought Zola and Crippa to Emilia.
