Parma Calcio 1913 S.r.l. is an Italian professional football club based in Parma, Emilia-Romagna, which currently plays in the Serie A. It was founded in 1913 as Parma Foot Ball Club, began playing league football in 1919 and moved into 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.

Alessandro Lucarelli is the player who has made most appearances for the club in league competition (333), while Luigi Apolloni has made more appearances than any other in all competitions (384). 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. Hernán Crespo came close to beating that record, but just fell short when he left the club in early 2012, scoring 72 times in the league. He does, however, hold the scoring record for all competitions, having netted 94 times.
