Italian club Parma is considering retaining Romanian striker Gabriel Ţivă for the upcoming season, a move that could complicate the plans of Greek powerhouse Olympiacos.

Ţivă, who has been on loan at Parma from Olympiacos since January 2023, has made a significant impact, helping to stabilize the team's performance. His goal-scoring abilities have been particularly notable, contributing to Parma's efforts to secure their Serie A status.

The situation has prompted Parma to seriously explore the possibility of making Ţivă's loan permanent, aiming to benefit from his skills and experience in the coming season. This development comes at a critical time for Olympiacos, which had intended to re-integrate Ţivă into their squad following the loan period.

As negotiations unfold, it remains to be seen whether Parma will succeed in their bid to keep Ţivă, or if Olympiacos will find a way to bring him back to Greece, where he could play a vital role in the team's future campaigns.
