Sassuolo are not just in talks with Como for Alieu Fadera, but also trying to get a deal done for midfielder Yannik Engelhardt.
Nobody spent more in Serie A this summer than Como, which means they now have a surplus of players and need to clear out some of their cupboards.
This presents valuable opportunities for other teams, above all newly promoted Sassuolo, who won the Serie B title last term.
Sassuolo eye up Engelhardt and Fadera
We had already confirmed their focus on picking up attacking wide forward Fadera.
Now Sassuolo are also getting into advanced talks for Como midfielder Engelhardt, who is surplus to requirements for Cesc Fabregas.
There are a few clubs outside of Italy who are also interested in the German, but Sassuolo will try to get in there first.
The 24-year-old was purchased only a year ago from Fortuna Dusseldorf for €8m plus up to €1m in add-ons.
Engelhardt made 26 Serie A appearances for Como, contributing one goal and one assist.
