Longo: Sassuolo nears €6M release clause for Liberali, Milan to receive €3M

Come on—have you even watched Serie B? When he first arrived, he was far too thin to play; only after gaining muscle mass did he make his debut. Moreover, he has played alongside Cissé before, with the two positioned on opposite flanks—one on the left, the other on the right—and each favoring a different foot: one left-footed, the other right-footed.

Most Italian coaches are hesitant to field young players casually; after Cisse’s injury, he delivered a top-tier performance.

Nowhere—not even to the rival.

don't sell him

This one is promising—his career path is very clear, and Sassuolo’s “Sunflower” (coach Alessio Dionisi) is also his mentor. Pio also has a clear career plan—perform well in Serie B. Otherwise, even if you’re highly skilled, experienced Serie A coaches may look down on you. Camardale’s career planning is just slightly lacking.

Sassuolo’s transfer fee is over €10 million.

Aquilani is moving to Sassuolo—bringing him along truly makes him the kid’s mentor.

A remarkably talented and ambitious player. He calculated his departure from Milan early on and carefully planned his future career.

Buy him back for five million euros—Liberali is now no worse than Cissé was before his injury. With Leão gone, it’s time to stock up on young players.

Watching his performance in Serie B, he’s clearly improving with every game. His technique is already very solid; if he builds more physical strength, he should be able to take another step up.

Can he really pull this off?! Wow wow wow wow

In recent years, even the youth academies have become utterly terrible.

Liberali did make appearances for AC Milan’s first team back then, but his ability to compete was still far from sufficient—he had no standout performances. He truly developed after playing dozens of matches in Serie B. In fact, Italy is not lacking in talented players; the issue is that clubs offer too few opportunities to players aged 18–22.

Made a fortune

Estimated to sell for €20 million after one season

Happy to secure the first transfer-window windfall!
