Falcone signs for Parma

Parma are yet to announce their new Coach, but they have signed Sampdoria’s Italian international Giulio Falcone.

The Tardini side are marching on in their transfer strategy despite so far failing to find a replacement for Juventus-bound Claudio Ranieri.

This afternoon the club released a statement confirming that 33-year-old Falcone had put pen to paper on a two-year contract.

The defender has spent the last four seasons at Sampdoria, where he impressed enough to earn his debut Italy cap.

Falcone made his one and only appearance on Roberto Donadoni’s opener, a 2-0 friendly defeat to Croatia on August 16, 2006.

He began his career at Torino in 1992 with spells at Fiorentina and Bologna before his time at Marassi.

This season Falcone has the unenviable statistic of one of the least disciplined players in Serie A, having picked up three dismissals.
