Sassuolo preparing to name a new coach, Bucchi awaits

Sassuolo is replacing their departed coach Eusebio Di Francesco: Cristian Bucchi is one of the highest regarded candidates for the job. He is competing with Crotone coach Davide Nicola, and Pippo Inzaghi had been another of the names being considered, though no further progress was made. A decision is expected in the coming hours and at the start of next week Sassuolo could be calling on their new coach. For the presumed favorite Bucchi, if Sassuolo doesn't select him, Bari has been waiting for his response and he's also had contact with Frosinone and Empoli.
