Milan, the only club in Italy to have won more international than domestic honours.

William Bronzoni holds the all-time scoring record for Parma, scoring 78 goals in 201 matches in the eight-year period following the Second World War ending in 1953.^[54] Antonio Benarrivo holds Parma's official Serie A appearance record, taking to the field 258 times between 1991 and 2004, while Hernán Crespo is Parma's all-time Serie A top scorer with 72 goals (his most recent coming on 20 February 2011), 62 of which came in his first spell at the club between 1996 and 2000 in just 116 matches.^[55] When Crespo left the club in 2000, Lazio spent a then world record sum of €43,600,000 to secure his services, which is now the sixth highest transfer free ever paid and, of course, a record in transfer fees received for Parma. The most Parma have spent on acquiring a player is the €32.2M spent on buying Hidetoshi Nakata fromRoma in 2001.^[55]

Although Parma are currently competing in only their twentieth nineteen season in Serie A, they have amassed the fifteenth most points in the league's history and haved the best average points total per season in the history of Italian football's top flight. Perhaps reflecting this, Parma are one of just five clubs worldwide who have won major international trophies without having also won a national league title, along with Cienciano, Arsenal de Sarandí, Real Zaragoza and Bayer Leverkusen. The club were also the only side to represent Italy in European competition for every year between 1991 and 2005.
