Parma boss Roberto Donadoni is demanding more from Antonio Cassano.
Donadoni wants Cassano to go on a diet.
"Parma invested in Cassano, believed in him and continues to believe in him, to the degree that his campaign was able to earn a World Cup place, something few believed was possible.
"Now I expect even more from Antonio. If a player needs the World Cup as a target to motivate him into playing well, then that means he has some limitations.
"I hope Antonio returns from his vacation with the right motivation, hopefully not too heavy too, as then he has to work twice as hard to take the weight off.
"He already knows how hard he needed to train in pre-season last year and it took a lot out of him."
