Inter Milan defender Franco Carboni has joined Serie A strugglers Parma on loan until the end of the season.

According to Inter.it, the Argentine star will spend the second half of the season at Stadio Ennio Tardini.

Franco Carboni moved to Empoli in the summer, looking to secure regular first-team action in Serie B.

Despite making 17 league appearances in the first part of the season, the 22-year-old has cut short his loan stint in Tuscany.

Despite returning to San Siro sooner than expected, Carboni will not stay.

Instead, the brother of Valentin Carboni will return to Serie A in the Parma shirt, hoping to help the Crusaders avoid the drop.

Meanwhile, Parma will have a buyout option, allowing them to make the move permanent in the summer.

Carboni has been on Inter’s books since 2022, but he has yet to make his Serie A debut for the club.

Furthermore, this will be the sixth time that the Nerazzurri have sent him out on loan.
