“On a sporting level no, because this squad has a good time together. For the rest yes.

Goalkeeper Mirante was asked on Radio Deejay this morning whether he couldn’t wait for the season to end.

“On a sporting level no, because this squad has a good time together. For the rest yes.

“I don’t know why there are stories I’ll terminate my contract like Ishak Belfodil, but it’s not true. I will talk to the administrators soon, though.

“We need to lower the debt and the players are accepting a reduction of over 70 per cent of the wages owed.

“I think my future will be far away from Parma, even if I still hope the club can be bought by someone so it can play in Serie B next season.”

Meanwhile, Parma’s administrators released a statement confirming the “vast majority” of players and staff have signed papers agreeing to give up on most of the money owed.

The reduction of the so-called ‘sporting debt’ is essential to get Parma registered for Serie B next term, assuming a new buyer comes in.

“Many of the players with longer contracts also formally confirmed their availability to renegotiate with new owners and reduce wages in line with Serie B averages.”
