Parma coach Francesco Guidolin has only words of praise for former player McDonald Mariga.
Mariga left Parma on transfer deadline day for Inter Milan.
"We worked together for 18 months and he grew a lot in that time," noted Guidolin.
"He is still shy and the more he is able to learn the language and communicate, the better he'll settle in to Serie A.
"He has talent and a great future ahead of him. If he doesn't make a mistake, he'll become a fantastic player."
