- Sassuolo have announced the signing of Matic
- He joins until 2026 with an option for another year
- Mutualy terminated contract after agreement with ลียง
Sassuolo have announced the signing of Matic on a free transfer, with the midfielder agreeing a contract until June 2026 which will renew for another year if he meets certain criteria.
The former แมนเชสเตอร์ยูไนเต็ด และ เชลซี player returns to กัลโช่ เซเรีย อา after his initial spell with โรม่า under Jose Mourinho, where he reached a ยูโรปาลีก final and secured a top-six finish. The two-time พรีเมียร์ลีก winner later joined Lyon, becoming an important part of Paulo Fonseca’s midfield, before mutually terminating his contract after just one season.
As well as Matic’s arrival, winger Domenico Berardi has signed a long-term extension until 2029 at Sassuolo, potentially keeping him at the Mapei Stadium until age 35. A club icon, his renewal is a major boost for fans and strengthens hopes of maintaining Sassuolo’s Serie A status.
After a losing start to Serie A with a 2-0 loss to champions Napoli, Sassuolo will hope that the signing of Matic will boost their hopes of staying in the top flight.
