As soon as the news came out, many fans left messages on the club's official website to express their support for the club's decision.

They believe that Alessandro absolutely deserves this honor.

After all, Alessandro has accompanied the team through the long years, the most difficult times, and is about to lead the team to glory. He is undoubtedly one of the greatest people in the club's history.

Alessandro also posted a text on his social media to thank the fans for their support: "If there is a happiest moment in my career, then the happiest day is the day I joined Parma, and the second happiest day is today. Parma is the most important name in my career. Thank you for your support, I will always be with you."

However, on the day when Alessandro's jersey was retired, a tragic case occurred in a group match of the 2019 World Youth Championship.

The two sides in this game are Norway and Honduras.

Haaland started the game.

Because he had to participate in the World Youth Championship, he did not even participate in the last round of Serie A.

However, the Norwegian national youth team performed very badly in the first two games. They lost to Uruguay and New Zealand in succession and had no chance of qualifying.

This match with Honduras became Norway's last match in this tournament.

Honduras performed worse than Norway. They also lost both games and had already lost the possibility of qualifying.

So this game was completely a friendly match.

But in such a useless game, the whole Norwegian team was in full swing!

They scored twelve goals in the 90-minute game and won the opponent by twelve to zero!

However, what was more shocking than this score was that Haaland scored nine goals in this game!

This number of goals made countless people feel incredible!

For a time, this news was directly screened, and many people finally got to know this young striker with a somewhat alternative appearance!

Many people exclaimed that the demon child was born, and believed that this striker with extremely explosive impact would achieve great things.

Rossi saw these reports and immediately said to Matteo with a smirk: "Mateo, your starting position next season is not guaranteed!"

Mateo glared at him unhappily: "You really worry about nothing..."

Now the two of them are resting in the hotel where the national team is staying.

Since the group stage of the European Cup qualifiers will be held in a few days, they were called up to the national team to prepare for the game.

Matteo was actually a little absent-minded because he was still thinking about Parma's signings.

These few days are the key moments to determine Parma's summer transfer strategy, but he can only stay in the national team for training.

It's really a waste of time...

In fact, Parma needs to add a lot of people.

On the defensive line, Di Cesare's contract expires. He has not played in the team this season, so leaving the team is an inevitable choice.

Bastoni's loan has also expired. Inter Milan will definitely not let this baby go easily, so Parma cannot buy him out.

Bruno Alves is in good shape. Although he is about to turn 38, Parma should keep him for another year.

In this way, Parma is missing two people in the central defender position.

In addition to being able to transfer the new Nesta Barata to the first team, they also need to add one more person.

In the midfield, Odegaard, whose loan expires, leaves the team, and McAllister needs to find a substitute.

Veteran Luca Rigoni is one year older, but he can still play as a substitute for another year.

So they need to add one more person in the midfield line.

The biggest problem is the winger.

Gervinho performed well, but he is already old, and he also needs to find a substitute.

Di Gaudio still has one year on his contract, but he has clearly expressed his desire to leave the team.

After all, his ability is gradually not worthy of Parma, so it is also a good choice to part ways in peace.

So now the winger position still needs a lot of people.

As for the forwards, Haaland found Alessandro two days ago, hoping that he could loan Haaland out to play more games next season. Haaland needs to play more games at this age to grow quickly, but with Mateo in Parma, he can only play as a substitute.

If Haaland is really going to be loaned out, he will need to add one or two forwards.

Although the new Totti Contu can also be transferred to the first team, he is more suitable to play as a second striker.

So if there is still room, try to add one person after Haaland leaves the team.

In terms of overall priority, it is to solve the winger problem, but Italy does not haveWhat good winger, so they have no idea for the time being.

He simply didn't want to think about it for the time being, just finish these two European qualifiers first!

And the time soon came to June 8, 2019.

Italy challenged Greece away.

Today's Greece is no longer the Greece that won the European Cup 15 years ago. Their football continues to decline. I believe Italy will have no problem taking him down.

And in this game, Matteo was finally put in the starting lineup by Mancini!

Due to his outstanding performance in the league, Mancini has no reason not to give him a chance to start!

In this game, Italy still uses a 433 formation, and the starting lineup is Donnarumma, Florenzi, Bonucci, Acerbi, Emerson, Jorginho, Verratti, Barella, Chiesa, Insigne and Matteo.

Greece used a 451 formation, with the starting lineup being Vlachodimos, Bakakis, Retsos, Siovas, Stafilidis, Frusai, Bouchalakis, Zeka, Kurbelis, Fetfazides and Koulouris.

Anyway, all of them were of the same generation.

This game also attracted a lot of attention before the game, but they all thought that Italy would win easily.

And the progress of the game was the same as many people expected.

In the third minute, Italy got the ball in the midfield.

Barella first passed the ball to Verratti, and then he ran forward.

And Verratti also passed the ball to him at the right time.

After getting the ball, Barella continued to move forward and passed the ball to the wing before the opponent's midfielder came up.

Insigne faced the opponent's right back Bakakis with just two changes of direction to completely shake him off!

He took the ball and cut in two steps along the penalty area line, and suddenly sent a small arc!

The ball just passed over the head of Retzos, and Mateo rushed out from behind him and headed the ball!

No suspense!

The ball hit the net heavily!

One to zero, Italy took the lead away from home!

And Mateo couldn't help but get excited, after all, this was his first goal for the national team!
