Sassuolo Coach Eusebio Di Francesco is “very proud” of his international stars Simone Zaza and Domenico Berardi.

Both players hit the headlines for Italy this week, as Berardi scored the winner in the Under-21 side’s 3-2 victory over Serbia, while Zaza made an impressive senior debut in the 2-0 friendly win against Holland.

“I think what the lads are doing with the Azzurri should make Sassuolo very proud,” Di Francesco told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“It is satisfying for me to see my players do so well for Italy. Am I afraid they’ll get big-headed? Some pressure helps you to grow and the attention for these players is welcome.”

After that fine partnership with Ciro Immobile, it’s reported Zaza will again start alongside the Borussia Dortmund man in Tuesday’s Euro 2016 qualifier with Norway.
