Genoa vs Parma preview - Focus on football for Donadoni



Posted Wednesday, April 15, 2015 by PA

Parma boss Roberto Donadoni is just focusing on football as he prepares for the rearranged trip to Genoa on Wednesday night.

Donadoni's side were originally due to face Genoa on March 1, but it was one of two matches postponed as the Crusaders hit financial difficulties that led to the club being declared bankrupt last month.

That ruling means Parma's Serie A relegation is confirmed, but back-to-back 1-0 wins over Udinese and league leaders Juventus have at least lifted some of the gloom.

"We face a day at a time," Donadoni told Gazzetta Dello Sport. "We shared so many difficulties.

"We must not forget that the final stage of the championship will decide the fate of several teams, not only our own."

Parma revealed in a press release on Tuesday that the club had been valued between 20 and 25 million euros - a figure that does not include the club's debt - by advisor Fabio Buttignon, an expert in business valuation and intangible assets, and Roberto Marranos, who is supervising the estimated value of the company.

When asked about the valuation of the club, Donadoni stressed on fcparma.com that it is not up to him to consider such matters, adding: "It is not my job to estimate Parma, I cannot answer.

"It does not have a price that I can define in economic terms, I really do not know the answer."

Mid-table Genoa, who will be boosted by the return of goalkeeper Mattia Perin, ended a five-match winless run with a 2-0 victory over Cagliari last time out and manager Gian Piero Gasperini wants to keep their faint European hopes alive as long as possible.

"Europe? We dream always," he told Gazzetta Dello Sport.

"This is a team that under certain conditions can play well and we now expect the recovery against Parma, who are going through a great period of form."
