The CEO of the Neroverdi spoke to the microphones of Trc Modena: “There was a contact, not a real negotiation”
“I admit that there was contact with Juve for Berardi” This is how Giovanni Carnevali commented on the transfer situation of Sassuolo’s number 10 to Trc Modena. Berardi was one of the most talked about names on the black-green market and the CEO is not closing the door on a new Juventus charge in January: “Never rule him out. Maybe more important proposals will arrive, but it’s clear that Sassuolo doesn’t need to sell” , Carnevali declared.

“The contact with Juve occurred after Berardi had expressed his intention to join Juventus. They wanted him, but there was no real negotiation,” explained the Sassuolo CEO. The attacker’s farewell was a possibility, but only on one condition: “We had given a deadline, August 17, to close the agreement and find a replacement. At that moment Juve perhaps had different problems and ended up with a stalemate. Clarity in negotiations is important and you can’t drag it out too long.” On Saturday at 6pm the Neroverdi will host Juventus at the Mapei Stadium, but it won’t be an opportunity to talk about the transfer market: “I won’t go to dinner with Giuntoli. Juventus are a squadron, they’re the favorites for the Scudetto together with Inter”, he concluded.
