Juventus will have the perfect chance to take a closer look at one of their potential future assets when they face Sassuolo this week. Tuttosport report how defender Amar Muharemovic has been in superb form, catching the attention of several top clubs, and the Bianconeri — who still hold a 50% sell-on clause — will monitor him closely at the Mapei Stadium.
Sassuolo Await Juventus in a Packed Mapei
After a deserved draw against Parma, as head coach Fabio Grosso himself admitted, Sassuolo now prepare to host Luciano Spalletti’s Juventus in front of a sell-out crowd. Despite cold and wet conditions, tickets for the match have all been snapped up — proof that the allure of facing Juventus remains as strong as ever.
For Grosso, who has his own links to the Bianconeri from his playing days, the challenge comes amid several injury concerns, particularly in attack. Key man Domenico Berardi remains sidelined, while Volpato and Koné have both been struggling with fitness issues. Koné should return to the starting XI, but Volpato is only expected to make the bench, leaving Sassuolo’s attacking trio short of rhythm.
Fadera, deployed on the right against Parma, found it difficult to make an impact, and both Laurienté and Pinamonti underperformed. As a result, the attacking setup could be reshuffled once more when Juventus come to town.
Muharemovic in the Spotlight
At the other end of the pitch, however, Sassuolo have reason for confidence. The Bosnian centre-back Muharemovic has quietly become one of their standout performers. His composure, physical strength, and growing tactical discipline have marked him out as one of Serie A’s most promising young defenders.
Juventus will pay particular attention to his progress given their financial stake in his future, but they are not alone. Inter are also reportedly tracking the 21-year-old, whose development under Grosso has been remarkable since his arrival in Emilia.
Thorstvedt and Sassuolo’s Rising Stars
Another player expected to be under the spotlight is Norwegian midfielder Kristian Thorstvedt, who recently scored against Parma with a clinical header. His strong performances this season have only enhanced his reputation as a dynamic, goal-scoring midfielder — a valuable asset in the modern game.
For Sassuolo, matches like this are more than just a test against one of Italy’s giants. They are an opportunity to showcase a group of players who are proving they belong at the top level. Back in Serie A after just one year away, the Neroverdi have not only shown resilience but also genuine quality, aiming for a season of stability rather than mere survival.
