Napoli agree Cheddira sale: he’s set to join Sassuolo | OneFootball

Outgoing move for Napoli, as they bid farewell to Walid Cheddira. The Moroccan striker was not even called up by Conte for the training camp, since he was never part of the Lecce coach’s plans. Despite being linked to many clubs during the transfer window, only now has he found an agreement for his departure: he will remain in Serie A, joining Fabio Grosso’s Sassuolo.

Napoli, Cheddira says goodbye: Sassuolo awaits him

Napoli’s outgoing transfer market continues, as the club works to offload the last surplus players not included in Antonio Conte’s project. Hasa, Zanoli, and Cheddira above all. The Moroccan was on the verge of leaving all summer, but only today did he reach an agreement with his new team. In June and July, his move to Panathinaikos in Greece seemed all but done, but the former Bari player was never convinced by the destination. Other clubs like Udinese, Cagliari, and Verona also came forward for him, but no deal was reached, partly due to Lukaku’s injury, which temporarily halted his transfer.

Now, according to Sky Sport, his transfer to his new club is complete: he will join Fabio Grosso’s Sassuolo, currently the only team in Serie A that hasn’t earned a single point in two matches. A team that could certainly use the experience of the striker born in ’98. Here is Sky’s announcement regarding Cheddira’s transfer: “Deal done for Walid Cheddira’s move to Sassuolo. The Neroverdi have reached a definitive agreement with Napoli, who held the player’s registration. Cheddira thus returns to Italy after his experience at Espanyol last season, where he made 23 appearances, scoring 1 goal and providing 1 assist between La Liga and the Copa del Rey.”
