Parma gets Bojinov from Manchester City
Soccer Betting Lines
07/06/2010 -
Parma, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Manchester City has confirmed that Bulgaria
international Valeri Bojinov has joined Parma for an undisclosed transfer fee.
The Serie A side claimed earlier in the week that they had agreed a deal for
the former Fiorentina star who endured an injury-plagued spell at Eastlands.
Bojinov spent last season on loan with Parma, scoring eight goals in 30
appearances for the club.
The 24-year-old joined City three years ago from Fiorentina in a $8.7 million
deal, but suffered a knee ligament injury on his full debut against Manchester
United in August 2007 that forced him to miss the rest of the campaign.
Bojinov then snapped his Achilles warming up for the first match of the
2008-09 season at Aston Villa and went on to score just one goal in three
starts for the club.
A brief statement on the club's official website read: "Everyone at Manchester
City wishes Valeri better luck at his new club."
