10. Jose Mauri – Parma

In a season that could not have possibly gone any worse for Parma, the emergence of Jose Mauri has been one of few positives at the Stadio Ennio Tardini.

The Argentinian-born midfielder regularly appeared on the bench for the Gialloblu last season, making just two cameo appearances toward the end of the campaign.

He made an early claim to the first team when he scored and provided an assist against Udinese, a claim that was acknowledged by coach Roberto Donadoni.

Mauri began to show the grit and determination that had seen him surpass his peers. Composed in possession and clever at retrieving the ball despite his slight stature, his creative side is also particularly noteworthy but still needs refining.

Sadly for Mauri his first full season for the senior squad has been a disappointing one, with Parma preparing for the horrors of bankruptcy and an imminent relegation to Serie B.

With the 19 year-old did among those likely to leave this summer, Mauri did give fans something to remember: his solitary goal that defeated league champions Juventus. He may have a big future ahead of him, but sadly not at Il Tardini.
