Bojinov joins Parma on loan

Man City have allowed striker Valeri Bojinov to quit the club on loan for one year, as Parma agreed terms for the frontman who has found his opportunities very limited at the City of Manchester Stadium.

It is a welcome return to Serie A for Bojinov, who had a very successful spell there previously.

Bojinov had a successful spell at Fiorentina, Lecce and Juventus; and is now delighted to finally seal a swoop back to Serie A with Parma.

Parma have an option to sign the forward permanently for £4.5 million.
