The 2020-21 campaign was a season of unprecedented heights for Sassuolo, as Roberto De Zerbi's Neroverdi finished a spectacular 8th in Serie A with a club-record 62 points. Leading the charge with unstoppable form was the talismanic forward Domenico Berardi, whose 17 goals anchored an attack that epitomized De Zerbi's beautiful, high-commitment philosophy. It was a memorable year built on a stunning eight-game unbeaten start and the seamless emergence of players like Maxime Lopez and Manuel Locatelli, marking a defining chapter in the club's ambitious, modern history.
