Bucharest court asks Parma for details in Dennis Man transfer dispute

The Bucharest Court of Appeal has ordered Parma Calcio 1913 to provide specific details regarding the negotiation of Dennis Man's transfer from FCSB. The court requested the Italian club to identify who intermediated the transfer on behalf of Dennis Man and all individuals involved from the start of negotiations until the contract was signed on January 29, 2021.

This request is part of an ongoing legal battle in which Anamaria Prodan is demanding 350,000 euros from the PSV Eindhoven player. Prodan alleges that Man breached their representation contract during his January 2021 move to Italy. During a hearing on September 8, 2026, Prodan's lawyers argued that another person negotiated the salary and conditions with the Italian club because Man did not speak the language the contract was drafted in.

Man's defense countered these claims by pointing to the Parma contract, which explicitly states that neither party used agents for the operation. His legal team noted that football regulations require intermediaries to be listed in transfer documents when a player is represented. The legal dispute originated from a five-year representation agreement signed on September 4, 2016, while Man was transferring from UTA to FCSB. Man previously requested the annulment of the 2016 contract, claiming Anamaria Prodan concluded it with cunning after he had already signed an agreement with FCSB.

The current proceedings follow a decision by the High Court of Cassation and Justice, which previously quashed an earlier appellate decision and sent the case back for retrial. During the recent hearing, the court delayed ruling on additional evidence requests from both parties until Parma responds. The next hearing has been scheduled for December 8, 2026.
