Parma defender Marco Rossi is delighted with his loan move to Sampdoria.

The youngster explained: "I grew up in the youth team of Parma, where I have played all my football before reaching the first team to do half the season on loan at Modena.

"This is true, it is my first experience away from home, but I wanted to change my environment and I intend to demonstrate that I can play for Sampdoria."
