Former Italy U21 coach Gigi di Biagio has admitted frustration with Sassuolo striker Domenico Berardi.

Di Biagio says the Italy ace should be playing for a bigger club.

He told Libero: “I'm p***sed off at Berardi, write it down.

"In past years, when he was supposed to go to Juve, Inter and Barcelona, he refused and stayed in Sassuolo.

"Now that he would like to make the big leap, the right opportunity hasn't been created. What a pity! Mimmo is a champion, it's a waste to see him play in Emilia with all due respect for the black and greens."
