Nonstop selling and most of their purchases haven't clicked. They used to replace sold players with young, promising players.

Those recent ones haven't worked out at all. Traore might be the last one worth a damn.

Yeah it's a tale old as time

You can only sell your best players every 12 months for so long until eventually you buy some duds.

It's a bit boring really. The only way to become a top club is through new owners.

I guess if you have 3-4 deep CL runs in a row you could maybe financially set yourself up to be a European level club but the odds of that happening are close to zero.
 

Tak!

Based on recent displays, admittedly against smaller teams, perhaps Magnanelli is starting to leave a mark

Yeah, I mean they've been doing it the "Right Way." Get to Serie A, build up a stable financial backdrop, develop some talent, build your own stadium, etc. But that next step is (like you said) make European football because that extra 15-20m is MASSIVE. And Sassuolo has not been able to get to that point so they've funded their growth with selling players. That is unsustainable unless you have the most ELITE and lucky scouts of all time.
