Parma’s rise began in the late 1980s and 1990s under the ownership of the Ducati and Parmalat-backed clubs, becoming one of Italy’s most successful teams. The club won many trophies, including:
- 3 Coppa Italia titles;
- 2 UEFA Cups;
- 2 Supercoppa Italiana trophies;
- and the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup.

This was remarkable for a club from a relatively small city. Legends like Hernán Crespo, Gianfranco Zola, Fabio Cannavaro, and Gianluigi Buffon donned the Parma shirt, making it a European powerhouse despite its modest size.
The problems of the parent company
However, Parma’s financial stability was deeply tied to Parmalat, the multinational dairy company that owned the club. When Parmalat collapsed in 2003 amid a massive accounting scandal, the club’s finances spiraled out of control.
By 2015, the club declared bankruptcy, burdened by debt and mismanagement. Parma was relegated from Serie A and forced to restart in Serie D, the fourth tier of Italian football. For fans, it was a devastating blow after decades of glory. The www.1xbet.ug/live website is perfect for making live bets on the Serie A as well.
The rebirth of Parma was swift and inspirational. The club was reformed under the name Parma Calcio 1913, reflecting its original founding year and signaling a return to tradition.
With careful financial management, community support, and a focus on sustainable growth, the new club achieved three consecutive promotions, moving from Serie D to Serie A in just three seasons. With 1xBet it is also possible to bet on teams that are likely to be promoted as well.
This meteoric rise was unprecedented in modern Italian football, showcasing resilience, determination, and fan loyalty.
