Empoli is highly interested in adding defender Cristian Dell'Orco to their squad. The azzurra club continues to work on a deal, as Sassuolo may be willing to loan out the player. With a move to Empoli, Dell'Orco would be reunited with manager Iachini, who coached the defender last year in neroverde.
This discussion may impact the transfer of Peluso to Cagliari, as Sassuolo would like to transfer just one of the two players, notwithstanding the arrival of Lucioni.
