Bernardo Corradi has returned to Parma after a year away at Manchester City.
The 31 year old striker left the Ducali for the Citizens in a deal of undisclosed value, but managed just three goals in his debut season for the then-goalshy Mancunians.
Now, Parma have taken him back on the condition that they pay his wages, thought to be in the region of 1.5 million euros a year, and may exercise their purchase option, valid in June 2008.
Thaksin Shinawatra's Manchester City have spent big over the summer, leaving Bernardo with little prospect of first team football.
