Sassuolo coach De Zerbi admits Shakhtar Donetsk negotiations

Sassuolo coach Roberto De Zerbi admits he's speaking with Shakhtar Donetsk.

De Zerbi declared last week he would be leaving the Sassuolo post.

After victory over Lazio, he said, “It's possible, we need to meet and discuss it, but nothing has been finalised. People might think it strange, but they probably weren't listening or thought I was just philosophising.

“I always said that I wanted and still want a role where I can be in the right condition to give my best. I do believe I have something to offer and I am trying to find a situation where I can express that to the best of my ability.

“If I am leaving Sassuolo, it is purely because I feel we've reached a stage where I cannot do more here, otherwise I wouldn't have left."
