Player Analysis: Giacomo Raspadori

Over the 20/21 Serie A season, Sassuolo established themselves as the “best of the rest” aside from the famous “7 Sisters” of Italian football, having finished 8th for the second consecutive season and missing out on playing European football for only the second time in their history due to goal difference.

There are many things to like about Roberto de Zerbi’s team, from the style of football he had them playing, team MVP Manuel Locatelli and the electric Domenico Berardi. Another thing that many frequent Sassuolo watchers will like is academy product, Giacomo Raspadori.

Unlike many young players who often get their chance out on loan, Raspadori has remained with the Neroverdi and enjoyed a breakout year, putting in some exciting performances and scoring 6 goals in 13.7 90s, including 5 in 10 games in the final stretch.
