Sassuolo Want Early Muric Deal
Serie A Sassuolo are reported to be keen to seal an early permanent deal for loanee Blues keeper Aro Muric at a reduced price.
Kosovo international Muric joined the newly promoted Serie B champions on a season-long loan in August with an option for a €10 million (£8.7 million) long-term switch next summer.
According to Sport Mediaset, Sassuolo have made it known that they would like to do an earlier permanent deal and are trying to negotiate a small discount on the figure agreed last summer.
The 26-year-old has made an impressive start to his season in Italy, keeping two Serie A clean sheets in five games, while his form has been even better for Kosovo during their World Cup qualification campaign, keeping three successive clean sheets.
Muric endured a tough first season at Portman Road having signed from Burnley for £8 million plus £2 million in add-ons in July last year, signing a four-year deal.
