Aquilani: "Carnevali's departure was a surprise"
Alberto Aquilani, the new coach of Sassuolo, expressed surprise about Giovanni Carnevali's move to Juventus and talked about the challenges of his new season.
Alberto Aquilani was officially introduced as the new coach of Sassuolo in a press conference. He expressed surprise when he learned that Giovanni Carnevali, who previously led the club, transferred to Juventus. "I haven't talked to Grosso yet. I realize that Carnevali leaves an important legacy. When a new coach comes, everything usually starts from the beginning, because every coach has his own method, but what Carnevali did left many good things," Aquilani shared.

The new season promises to be full of challenges for Sassuolo, as Aquilani, who once coached Catanzaro, will take over the coaching staff. He also said: "Having some players in the team is very important and I hope they will stay. However, the transfer market is unpredictable. Sassuolo's history shows that every time they sell players, they always find strong names to replace them. I believe that the management will be prepared for any situation." Finally, Aquilani thanked Carnevali, the man who brought him to Sassuolo: "I started talking to Carnevali and his departure was a surprise. But I think we should look forward, a new era is starting and we have to keep moving forward."
