Carlos Queixa on Parma: “The lesson from Michel Artey is to keep growing and never stop.”
The debut season of this 30-year-old coach at the helm of Parma was extremely successful. The coach himself admits that the influence of Artey has been decisive for him. “What I learned from Michel Artey is to keep growing and evolving constantly. Never stop,” said Queixa. He emphasized that Artey has a clear vision of football, which has become the foundation of his own methods. “That’s the only way forward. He’s an outstanding professional and a great person,” he added.
In today’s Serie A, where tactical strategies become outdated quickly, and competition increases with each match, such a philosophy of continuous development is particularly important. Adapting English football principles to Italian conditions requires flexibility. But it’s precisely the emphasis on evolution, rather than fixed rules, that allows young coaches to achieve stable results. If Parma continues this approach, the coach’s ambitious debut could turn into a long-term project that can change the balance of power in the league.
