Sassuolo have named Cristian Bucchi as their new head coach.
Bucchi replaces Eusebio Di Francesco who recently left to take charge of Roma after guiding Sassuolo to a 12th-placed finish in Serie A last season.
The 40-year-old Bucchi helped Perugia finish fourth in Serie B last term, securing a place in the promotion play-offs where they lost to eventual winners Benevento in the semi-finals.
A club statement read: " Sassuolo announce that they have entrusted the task of coaching the first team to Cristian Bucchi."
Bucchi will hold a press conference on Wednesday.
