Transfer news: Sassuolo say Juventus must pay to re-sign striker Simone Zaza

Sassuolo owner Giorgio Squinzi says Juventus must pay if they want to re-sign striker Simone Zaza.

Zaza, who was initially co-owned by the two clubs, was bought outright by Sassuolo this summer but has already been linked with a return to Massimiliano Allegri’s side.

The 23-year-old made his full Italy debut this month in the friendly against the Netherlands before scoring his first international goal in the European Qualifier victory over Norway.

Reports in Italy have suggested Juventus are considering a move for Zaza either next summer or in 2016.

"If the Bianconeri want him, in January they can get their wallets out and buy him," Squinzi told the Ansa news agency.  

"For the moment I just hope he puts two goals past Inter this weekend."
