List of Parma F.C. players

Parma Football Club are an Italian professional football club based in Parma, Emilia–Romagna, who currently play in the Serie A. They were founded in 1913 as Verdi Foot Ball Club, began playing league football in 1919 and moved in to current home the Stadio Ennio Tardini in 1923. Since those early days the club's first team has competed in numerous nationally and internationally-organised competitions. All players who have played in 100 or more such matches are listed below. Appearances and goals are for league matches only; substitute appearances are included.

Ivo Cocconi is the player who has made most appearances for the club in league competition, while William Bronzoni is the club's record league goalscorer, having scored 78 league goals during his Parma career; those goals coming in 201 matches in an eight-year period following the Second World War ending in 1953. Current player Hernán Crespo is closing in on that record, but his advancing years may yet see him fall short, although he does hold the scoring record in all competitions, having netted 91 times.
