Sassuolo coach Alessio Dionisi is pleased with the impact of new additions Agustin Alvarez and Kristian Thorstvedt.

Dionisi was speaking ahead of their Coppa Italia tie with Modena.

He said, "I am satisfied with what they have done from day one to today. Both must grow, like the whole team. Training and matches are needed.

"They already have a physical and mental condition. The will they put into it makes so much difference and they both arrived with great enthusiasm. Then there are also the teammates who have qualities, so I don't know if they will find space from the beginning or race in progress.

"They will certainly be very useful during the championship."
