In a statement to the official Parma website, Ordonez expressed his happiness about joining the team. He mentioned that he feels at home in Parma, which is a city with a significant history of Argentinean football players who have made a lasting impact.

Ordonez will celebrate his 21st birthday next month. The transfer deal was contingent on Parma avoiding relegation this past season, and the team was able to meet this condition.
