Marco Parolo (Italian pronunciation: [ˈmarko paˈrɔlo]; born 25 January 1985) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a centre midfielder for Serie A club Lazio and the Italian national team. An offensive-minded player, Parolo is known for his tendency to make attacking runs, and also possesses a keen eye for goal due to his powerful, accurate shooting ability from distance, with either foot.[1]

Club career

Youth

Parolo played for A.S.C.D. Torino Club of Gallarate from 1996 to 1998 and G.S. Soccer Boys of Turbigo from 1998 to 2001, which the clubs received €18,000 (reduced from €36,000 by appeal) and €53,484.54 (increased from €50,902.26 by appeal) respectively from Cesena after Parolo made his Serie A debut in 2010, a solidarity contribution system to youth and amateur clubs.[2] Parolo finished as the losing quarter-finalists in 2003 Primavera Reserve League for Calcio Como. He made 2 appearances in the playoffs round, as the substitutes of Greco and Caremi respectively.[3][4] In 2004 Como reserve was eliminated by Inter reserve in the round of 16 of the playoffs round, in 0–6 aggregate. Parolo was in the starting XI in the two matches.[5][6]

Como

Parolo made his professional debut at Como as a front-lying midfielder in a 4–4–1–1 formation on 19 September 2004, which he scored an own goal. Despite the own goal, La Gazzetta dello Sport gave a score of 6.5/10 to his debut, the 3rd highest score among his team-mate.[7] He remained with the club in the whole 2004–05 Serie C1 despite they were declared bankrupt in December 2004.[8] Parolo was in the starting XI in Como's relegation "play-out",[9][10] which the playoffs matches Como losing to Novara in 1–2 aggregate. Como folded at the end season as a takeover bid was denied.

Chievo

On 30 August 2005, Parolo was signed by Chievo but was immediately sent to Serie C1 club Pistoiese in a co-ownership deal, worth €10,000.[11] Parolo made 52 league appearances in 2 seasons, including 38 starts.

In June 2007, Chievo bought back Parolo[12] for around €15,000.[13] In August 2007, Parolo was sent to another Serie C1 club Foligno for a peppercorn of €500.[13][14] Parolo made 25 starts and 4 substitutes for Foligno in 2007–08 Serie C1. Parolo also played twice in promotion playoffs, losing to Cittadella in the first round.

On 4 July 2008, Parolo returned to Chievo again for €50,000.[15] He was immediately sold to "city rivals" Verona in another co-ownership deal for a fee of €250,[15] along with Leonardo Moracci (co-ownership for €250) and Domenico Girardi (loan).[16] In June 2009, Parolo and Moracci returned to Chievo for a peppercorn.[17][18]

Cesena

He joined Cesena on 10 July 2009 on a temporary deal, where he would rejoin former Foligno head coach Pierpaolo Bisoli, whom Parolo had previously played under during his short spell with Foligno.[19] The club finished as the runner-up of 2009–10 Serie B season, winning promotion to Serie A for the 2010–11 Serie A season. In June 2010, Cesena exercised the rights to sign the player in a co-ownership deal, for a fee of €300,000,[18] and Parolo signed a contract until 2013.[20]

Parolo made his Serie A debut on 28 August 2010, in a goalless draw with A.S. Roma.

After a good season in which Parolo earned a national team call-up, Cesena bought the remaining 50% rights from Chievo for €3 million[18] and extended his contract to 2015.[21]

Parma

On 7 July 2012, Serie A club Parma signed Parolo on a loan, for €1 million.[22][23] As part of the arrangement, they had the option to buy the player the following summer. Moreover, Gonçalo Brandão moved to Cesena as part of the temporary deal, with Parma subsidising €1.8 million to Cesena for Brandão's wage.[23][24] The loan of Brandão was also followed by Rossi, which Parma also subsidized Cesena for €1.2 million. Parolo made 36 appearances in 2012–13 Serie A, only missing two matches due to suspension. He was handed the no.16 shirt by the club in 2012.[25][26]

On 1 July 2013,[27] Parma exercised the rights to sign Parolo from Cesena for €1 million, but part of a mega cashless player swap.[nb 1] In the 2013–14 Serie A season Parma finished 6th, which earned them a place in the 2014–15 UEFA Europa League. However, Parma were not granted a UEFA licence by FIGC and the application was declined due to overdue tax.[28] Thus the place went to 7th placed Torino, which hold a UEFA licence.[29] Parolo made 36 appearances for them during 2013–14 Serie A season, again missing twice due to suspension.

Lazio

On 30 June 2014, Claudio Lotito, president of Serie A club Lazio, announced the signing of Parolo from Parma, for €4.5 million transfer fee,[30][31][32] subject to a medical.[33]

International career

He received his first national team call-up on 20 March 2011,[34] for a friendly match and UEFA Euro 2012 qualifying. The technical director of Cesena, Lorenzo Minotti, hinted Parolo would receive a call-up on 15 March in an interview by il Resto del Carlino.[35] He was subsequently selected by Cesare Prandelli as part of his 23-man squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, and made his debut in the competition playing as a substitute in the first game against England.
