Betrothed for almost half a football life, the destinies of Juventus and Domenico Berardi are intertwined in an endless story, which is punctually enriched by a new chapter every year. As in almost every market session in recent years, the name of the Sassuolo captain is once again associated with the black and white colors. This time, however, something has changed, starting with the attitude of Berardi himself, more convinced than ever to make the leap into a top team at the age of 29, in full maturity, after 333 appearances and 124 goals in the black and green jersey. Just over a decade to leave his mark in the history of Sassuolo, just as he almost caused a sensation with that great refusal in 2016.

«Juve pushed a lot for me to go to Turin but for me it was a kind of imposition.
And how much would I play? Would he have done me good on the bench, so young? And I was born with a Nerazzurri heart.” This is how he motivated his choice, after having given preference to Europe with Sassuolo. From 2013 to 2015 he was co-owned by Juve, resolved in 2015 in favor of the neroverdi for 10 million euros, while Juve retains the option to buy him back by the summer of 2017. Not many forwards have said say “no” to the Lady: Di Natale, Berbatov and Berardi more recently and a few others, but Juve doesn’t give up and returns to the office last year with Cherubini: they needed an attacking midfielder/full-back and in the end after a long wait the agreement with Angel Di Maria has arrived.
With the farewell of Fideo, who has returned to Benfica, Berardi’s name is once again on pole to give new quality to Max Allegri’s attack. One step away from the gong of the transfer market, Berardi could be Juventus’ last shot but Giuntoli signed the first, there is already an agreement with the striker on the basis of a four-year contract at more than 3 million euros per season, now it goes convinced Sassuolo that they do not accept technical counterparts (Juventus have tried to include Iling Junior and Soulé in the negotiation) and want at least 30 million to put an end to the long courtship.
