Sassuolo defender Francesco Acerbi was on the verge of agreeing a transfer to Inter until “Luciano Spalletti and Walter Sabatini arrived.”
The centre-back had said at the end of last season that he would not be renewing his contract with the Neroverdi, as it was time to move on.
“This was the missed move of the summer,” agent Augusto Carpeggiani told Calciomercato.it.

The centre-back had said at the end of last season that he would not be renewing his contract with the Neroverdi, as it was time to move on.
“This was the missed move of the summer,” agent Augusto Carpeggiani told Calciomercato.it.
“The negotiations were at an advanced stage, we’d had meetings and discussions, but when Spalletti and Sabatini arrived, things changed and they made other choices.
“Therefore, we decided to renew the contract with Sassuolo to 2022.”
