The Europa League would be ‘another step in Sassuolo’s growth’ says Eusebio Di Francesco, who says ‘Juventus are most suited to Domenico Berardi.’

The Neroverdi finished sixth in Serie A this season, meaning a Bianconeri victory in Saturday’s Coppa Italia final would see them qualify for Europe for the first time.

“I hope Juve win the Coppa, because it’d be fantastic to compete in Europe,” Di Francesco told Gazzetta dello Sport.

“I can’t understand how the Europa League could be considered as a nuisance. For us it would be another step in our growth.

“We are the second team of many football lovers and this is a great victory. I’m happy to have created something together with the club, a strong identity on and off the pitch. We’re a family and, believe me, that’s not a cliché.

“Berardi really is like a son so I don’t want to put pressure on him. Perhaps he didn’t fulfil his potential in the last season but he has matured. Also from a behavioural point of view. He deserves a big opportunity.

“Juve are the club most suited to a player like Berardi. He’s talent who can endure a change of team and environment. Juve would help him settle in and would wait for him.”
