President Calisto Tanzi Stadium Stadio Ennio Tardini Coppa Italia Runners-up | Manager Alberto Malesani Serie A 4th UEFA Cup Fourth round | |
Parma Associazione Calcio had a moderately strong season in 2000–01, managing to qualify for the UEFA Champions League, but also losing the final of Coppa Italia and dropping out of the UEFA Cup too early for the board's liking, ultimately leading to coach Alberto Malesani being let go at the end of the season.

2000–01 also marked the first time in four years that Parma had to make do without star striker Hernán Crespo, who left for 2000 champions Lazio in the early summer. Sérgio Conçeicão and Matías Almeyda arrived from the Rome club as part of the transfer, but as they were midfielders Parma was staring at a potential striking crisis. Marco Di Vaio hit the back of the net 15 times, but Márcio Amoroso continued his miserable display in the Parma shirt, which saw him offloaded to Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2001.
Still young, superstar goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon played out his final season with the club, along with defender Lilian Thuram. Both were sold to Juventus in the summer, and their absence was clearly felt in the 2001–02 season. 2001 remains the last time Parma qualified for the Champions League.
