It's Sassuolo, where he's expected to sign a loan deal with an option to buy in the coming hours. The Castellammare di Stabia striker is undergoing a medical at the Mapei Center.
Sassuolo will pay €1 million for Esposito immediately, and will have to pay €11 million (plus a 15% interest on the future resale price) if they choose to exercise their right to buy. Riccardo Ciervo, who Cagliari are also acquiring with an option to buy, is arriving in Sardinia to complete the loan swap . The 2002-born player also began his medical at around 10:30 a.m.: in his case, in Rome, at the Villa Stuart clinic.
Esposito leaves Cagliari after just one season and the unfortunate split with the club . Several clubs had been linked in recent weeks, but in the end, Sassuolo won out.
