Parma president Kyle Krause dispelled all doubts about coach Fabio Pecchia’s position by extending his contract in a surprising announcement to CBS.

While some Italian media wondered whether Pecchia’s job could be at risk, CBS published a video on their X official account showing Krause announcing his coach’s contract renewal until 2027.
“Fabio has been a fantastic asset to the club and an important part of us building what we wanted to do from a vision standpoint,” Parma president claimed in an exclusive announcement.
Krause also defined Pecchia as the ‘right man for the job and the right man for a future’, as he claimed to be pleased with what the manager has achieved in terms of ‘team’s cohesion standpoint’, ‘performance’ and ‘tactically’.
