The Sassuolo Herald

42 days out for Edoardo Pieragnolo after a fracture
A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Sassuolo will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

A knee injury of the worst kind for Rodrigo Brandán
52 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Sassuolo lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Supporters organise against the Sassuolo board
A bad atmosphere can be waited out. A group of people meeting afterwards to decide what to do about it cannot, and everybody in the building knows which stage this is.

Luca Lungu has said yes to Cosenza
The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Sassuolo have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Business is business: Samuele Mulattieri goes
Torino paid $8.5M and Sassuolo took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Janis Antiste puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Sassuolo, and it is not being withdrawn.

Sassuolo lose Matteo Gabbia
51 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Mario David is on his way
The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Sassuolo is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

The step up is real for Patrick Nuamah
At 22 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.
In brief
