Once the party has been archived, put aside the bottles of Champagne now emptied, it is time to think of tomorrow even if the championship is still in progress. Serie B of Sassuolo lasted only one season: predictable, not obvious. Especially if we look at so many relegated teams that are then struggling (latest cases Frosinone and Salernitana). But at Sassuolo, with foresight, they had moved in time: already at the end of last May, in relegation that took place (the first in the story after 11 seasons in a row in A), they laid the foundations for the future taking Fabio Grosso and building a team tailored to his football belief.

Berardi, what do you do?

Here, the first base for the next year is the technician who will remain at the helm of the neroverde team and find Serie A after Brescia’s experience, which ended after only three games in November 2019. The 2006 world champion should start from the defense to four who has been a bit the trademark of Sassuolo in these years. For the rest, much will depend on what Domenico Berardi will do, the most representative player, the team’s totem, the Trait d’union With the first, historic promotion in Serie A of Sassuolo, who arrived in 2013. At that time he was a boy of beautiful hopes, then he became great until he reached the peak of the European 2021. His dream is to play the Champions League, so if he goes away (the contract expires in 2027) will probably do so only for a top club.

Sassuolo choices

Obviously Sassuolo has other players ready for Serie A. such as Laurienté, back from a very brilliant season that can well do it at the level of self -esteem. The French has so far marked 15 goals and provided 5 assists, making a fundamental contribution for this winning ride. Will be able to keep this level in A too? The couple composed of the AD Giovanni Carnevali and the DS Francesco Palmieri hopes for yes, but they will surely disdain the market in search of other reinforcements. Some are already at home. Like the defender Tarik Muharemovic just purchased definitively by Juve from whom he had come on loan. Or like goalkeeper Horatiu Moldovan, on loan from Atletico Madrid but with the right of redemption to 800 thousand euros in favor of the Emilians. Kristian Thorstvedt will also be part of the project, currently injured (finished season) but ready to get back into the game from the summer retreat. Instead, the position of Captain Filippo Romagna is defined: the contract expires in June. As for the returns from loans, Sassuolo will have to decide what to do with Andrea Pinamonti, given that Genoa has no intention of redeeming him to 14 million and with Stefano Turati who will return after the parenthesis at Monza. Sassuolo managers are already working to look for the most effective strategies.
