While the first team was recruiting, Parma's youth team also recruited many new members.

Most of them were young people who had terminated their contracts with other clubs.

Although they were all eliminated, Parma did not despise them.

After all, their youth team structure was not complete before, and now they also need many people to supplement their various echelons.

There are three people that Matteo cares about more.

The first one is Juan Ramos, a Uruguayan who plays as a left back.

A few years ago, he transferred to Catania, which was still in Serie A at the time, but he did not expect that Catania would fall at the speed of light since then, and was relegated from Serie A to Serie C. He also wasted a lot of time in the team, and his contract finally expired this summer.

So he came to Parma.

In fact, his ability is already enough to play as a substitute, but there is no place for him in the first team now, so Parma decided to loan him out first.

If Parma sells Leonardo Nuzzella next year, he can play as a substitute.

The second one is Alessandro Patakini, a young man who came out of Inter Milan's youth training and plays as a right winger.

His potential is actually not bad, but Inter Milan is full of talents and he is not valued there, so he switched to Parma.

The third one is Facundo Lescano, an Argentine striker who is a product of Genoa's youth training.

He has good physical conditions, 1.88 meters tall and 75 kilograms. If he can train well in the future, he can also be his own substitute.

These three people may become rotation players for Parma in the future.

In addition, Alessandro also added several new members to the coaching team.

He recruited a team doctor, a goalkeeper coach, and a physical coach, which can make the players' training more meticulous.

As for the football director, Alessandro has not found any suitable candidates yet, and still let Scala do this part-time.

After all, Parma is still very poor now, and the salary of a good football director is too high, and they can't afford it for the time being.

But everything will be fine. When Parma is promoted to Serie A, they will have the money to hire a football director.

Soon, the new season is getting closer and closer.

Before the start of the season, the bookmakers also opened the odds for the new season's promotion.

Among them, Empoli, Palermo and Frosinone ranked in the top three, while Parma, as a newly promoted team, was only ranked in the middle.

Obviously, the bookmakers are not optimistic about their promotion.

No wonder, Parma performed very averagely in the pre-match warm-up match, which made many people look very badly on them.

Moreover, in the first official match of the season, the second round of the Italian Cup, Parma lost to Bari, who is also in Serie B, 1-2, and the state seemed extremely average.

What's more depressing is that in this game, the team's captain and owner Alessandro sprained his ankle and is expected to be absent for a month.

Although Alessandro is old, he is the spiritual leader of the team after all, and his injury has cast a shadow on Parma's prospects this season.

Mateo clearly remembered that according to the original timeline, this season would be his last season.

After all, he is now 40 years old, and he has begun to lose his strength in many cases.

If he hadn't wanted to help Parma get promoted to the first division, he might not have played this season.

Claire looked at her husband's swollen ankle and felt distressed: "Alessandro, you are so old and don't know how to be careful."

Alessandro smiled: "I do this job. If I am afraid of getting injured, I will not play football."

Claire sighed: "You said you play football, it's fine, but you let the little ones at home follow you. I don't know how much hardship they will have to endure in the future."

But this time, before Mateo could interrupt, Diego, who was always taciturn, suddenly said: "You can earn a lot by playing football..."

Claire hit him on the head with her backhand: "Why are you so obsessed with money?"

Diego said aggrievedly: "Mateo is the one who is obsessed with money!"

Claire snorted: "Your brother can help me make money, he is not called a money-grubber, he is called the God of Wealth! But you only know how to eat, you are a money-grubber and a glutton..."

Diego looked at his mother and his laughing brother helplessly, and sat there without saying a word.

Mateo was amused. Diego had a really good temper, but he looked sullen and easy to bully.

This year, the 13-year-old also began to train in the Parma team, but Mateo had not found a suitable skill package for him, so he could only let him grow wildly.

But he was still young, and there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.Alessandro couldn't help but smile as he watched the family playing and fighting.

Although he became the flag bearer of Parma and the boss of Parma, if we talk about his most proud achievement in the first half of his life, it must be that he had such a harmonious family.

He leaned comfortably on the sofa: "I don't know if it's because I'm old, why I don't like to move more and more. If I wasn't worried about the team, I even think I can stop playing football..."

Matteo knew that he had the idea of ​​retiring: "Dad, wait until you lead us to Serie A before considering retirement..."

Alessandro smiled: "I have this idea, but I feel that our situation is very serious this year..."

Matteo shook his head: "I feel that we are terribly strong this year, and there will be no problem in promotion to Serie A!"

Alessandro smiled and said: "You are really confident. Serie B is not like Serie C and Serie D. Every opponent is difficult to play. Most of their teams have experience in Serie A. It can be said that they are all tough. We can actually be more pragmatic this year, stabilize our ranking in Serie B first, and then seek promotion to Serie A next year."

But Matteo said: "We won't wait, we just have to do it in one go! The practical things will be discussed next year, and we just have to rush forward this year! I believe in the ability of our team!"

Alessandro smiled, this is the young people, they just have this kind of sharpness!

Compared to him, I feel a little depressed.

Mateo is still looking forward with great enthusiasm: "After reaching Serie A, our share of broadcasting rights will increase significantly, which will greatly alleviate our financial crisis. By then, our Parma will be truly back to its place!"

Alessandro was also excited by what he said. He raised his head, as if he had seen a bright future.

If he can really achieve a triple jump, how wonderful it would be for him to retire gloriously as the captain next summer!

He patted Mateo on the shoulder: "Then let's fight one game at a time!"

Mateo nodded: "Then fight one game at a time!"
