“This city has become my home and I am happy to continue this journey with Parma Calcio. The last year was difficult due to the injury, but this made me even more determined to come back stronger than ever.
“I am working every day to be ready for the new season and can’t wait to experience new emotions along with all the fans. I thank the supporters for their affection, their support, and the faith they always showed in me. We’ll see each other soon!”
As the name would suggest, Cremaschi has Italian origins and therefore was able to secure an Italian passport.
He was also called up by Argentina at Under-20 level, but made his decision to represent the USA.
Cremaschi’s last game for Parma was in March, when he sustained a meniscus ligament injury in his knee, but he can look to the future with confidence in Serie A.

What happened
Parma have officially acquired Cremaschi from Inter Miami, tying the player down to a contract that extends to 2031. The deal represents a notable MLS-to-Serie A pipeline move, bringing an Inter Miami academy product to Italian football. Cremaschi joins Parma as a young addition to their squad, with the long contract indicating a significant investment in the player's development. The transfer is confirmed as official, with no details on the transfer fee disclosed in the headline.
Chance analysis
This is a confirmed MLS-to-Serie A transfer of a young Inter Miami academy product, signaling Parma's long-term project planning with a 2031 contract horizon. While not a marquee signing, it reflects continued cross-league talent flow from MLS academies to Italian football and gives Parma depth for the present and future. Inter Miami losing a youth product is a minor setback to their development pipeline.
Parma strengthen their squad with a young, long-term signing; Inter Miami lose a development prospect to Serie A.
Parma gain a young squad addition on a long-term deal; Cremaschi's immediate impact is likely limited but expect gradual integration into the first-team rotation.
