Overview
- Reports say a meeting between CEO Cherubini, sporting director Pettinà, Carlos Cuesta and his agent produced a mutual intent to continue working together next season.
- Sources report Cuesta still has a contract running to June 2027 with an option for 2028, which underpins expectations of continuity.
- Final sign-off rests with owner and president Krause and the agreement was expected to be formalised in the days following the reports.
- Parma clinched Serie A survival well before the end of the season, a result that the club sees as freeing resources and attention for the transfer market and pre-season planning.
- Club insiders say keeping Cuesta will shape recruitment and logistical plans for 2026–27 and that the coach has prioritised staying at Parma despite outside interest.
