Palermo President Maurizio Zamparini has officially bought into struggling club Triestina, who went bankrupt in June.

Triestina were in Lega Pro last season, but were declared bankrupt in June and a new club was formed in the Eccellenza Division.

Now it is official that Palermo patron Zamparini has invested heavily in Triestina with a three-year project.

The first proposal announced was that Triestina would become a testing ground for the Palermo youth academy.
