Bucchi is the favorite for new coach at Sassuolo

With Eusebio Di Francesco looking likely to land at Roma next season, the top name to replace him at Sassuolo is Cristian Bucchi. Bucchi is the coach of Perugia, who is currently competing in the Serie B playoff. Another candidate is Rolando Maran even though there has not yet been contacts between the sides. De Zerbi, who had been the first choice for Sassuolo, looks as though he will land at Las Palmas, which is his preferred destination. In the next few days De Zerbi will meet with the Spanish club to finalize the details on a one year contract.
