Parma Part Ways with Manager Carlos Cuesta
The club said the 31-year-old Spaniard left by mutual agreement after Parma’s poor start and first win of the season.
- On Sunday, Parma Calcio announced they parted ways with head coach Carlos Cuesta, describing the decision as mutual following discussions about the club's sporting project.
- Appointed in June 2025, Cuesta was the youngest coach in the Italian league at 31, guiding Parma to a 13th-place finish last season before recent struggles intensified.
- Despite a 2-1 victory over Genoa last weekend, Parma sits 15th in the Serie A standings with only four points; Cuesta wrote on Instagram, "It has been an intense year and a half during which I gave my all."
- The coaching staff will lead training sessions pending further developments, with no successor yet named ahead of Parma's match against Inter Milan on Oct 10.
- This move marks the third coaching change in Serie A this season, following managerial shifts at Fiorentina and Bologna, reflecting the league's growing impatience with early performance.
