Parma president Ghirardi happy closing deal for Man City striker Bojinov

Parma have completed the signing of Manchester City striker Valeri Bojinov.

The Bulgarian spent the last six months on loan at the Stadio Tardini and rediscovered his form after an injury-ravaged experience at Eastlands.

"I am satisfied, as we had been carrying on these negotiations since January," explained President Tommaso Ghirardi.

"Over time the price-tag rose and lowered. We received all the documentation now, so on Wednesday we'll announce the details in a Press conference.

"We have reached an agreement with Manchester City. Bojinov had received offers from Sevilla and other teams, but his desire to stay was essential.

"I am very grateful to Valeri, who strongly wanted to remain at Parma. The details of the contract will now be hammered out between our director and the players' staff."
