Original article: Erreà are set to leave Parma after 17 seasons, according to a report by ParmaToday.
Parma are set to sign a kit deal with Puma, which is part of a globalization strategy by American owner Kyle Krause, who acquired the club in 2020.
According to the report, Parma Calcio's current deal with Erreà was due to run for another two seasons after this one, which means that the club will have to pay a cancellation fee before being able to announce any new partnership.
Continuing, ParmaToday write that Erreà did respond to a request for comment. Oddly, it's stated that Krause's team did not even personally transmit the decision to Erreà, despite its founder Angelo Torrile still being a prt-owner of the club. Angelo Gandolfi, who founded Erreà in Torrile, just outside Parma, in 1988, is one of seven local business owners who helped rebuild Parma after the bankruptcy in 2015.
