Zaccardo relishes Parma clash

12 February 2013 21:34

Cristian Zaccardo would love to make his debut for AC Milan against his former club Parma on Friday night.

The right-back joined the Rossoneri in the January transfer window after three-and-a-half years with Parma.

"It would be exciting to start against Parma but the important thing is to play games - it doesn't matter whether that's against Parma or anyone else," Zaccardo told the Milan Channel.

"If I do start on Friday it will certainly be a good occasion for me personally."

AC Milan are currently fifth in Serie A after the 1-1 draw with Cagliari last weekend.

They are 14 points behind league leaders Juventus, and three away from a Champions League place.
