The 1-6 home draw with Napoli in his first on the Emilian bench already puts the coach’s permanence in doubt
The six goals conceded at the Mapei Stadium by his Sassuolo did not go down well with the management and owners of Sassuolo. So Emiliano Bigica, after just one match at the helm of the neroverdi, where he had replaced Dionisi, could already skip. In his place the Emilians tested the waters for Rino Gattuso, but the coach fresh from his dismissal from Olympique Marseille would have responded in spades.
the daisy of names

The names in Sassuolo’s notebook are those of Fabio Grosso, this season at Lyon, and Leonardo Semplici, last seen on the Spezia bench in the 2022-23 championship, which ended with the relegation of the Ligurians to Serie B. Sassuolo currently occupies the penultimate place in the standings at 20 on a par with Verona and Cagliari, ahead only of Salernitana. And on Sunday at 12.30 they will face a very delicate direct clash in terms of survival, that of Bentegodi against Hellas.
