Duje Caleta-Car, defender of Sassuolo, expressed his determination during an interview with DAZN before the match against Frosinone. "I like responsibility, I have played in many international championships. That's why I'm here", he declared, underlining the importance of the defensive role within the team.
The player, originally from Lyon, arrives at Sassuolo with international experience that includes European championships and the Mauritania national team. His arrival was welcomed as a reinforcement of experience for the defense of the Ligurian club, which sought to consolidate its defensive structure after a season of mixed results. Caleta‑Car also mentioned his trust in Leysen, another defender the club is monitoring for the future, wishing him a quick return to the pitch.
During the interview, the defender spoke about his responsibilities on the pitch, highlighting how his career has prepared him to handle pressure and critical decisions. He underlined that a fighter's mentality is crucial, especially in a team trying to improve their position in the Serie A table. His comment was received positively by fans and club officials, who see him as a key element for defensive stability.
In the broader context of Serie A, Sassuolo has recently had moments of uncertainty, with results not always meeting expectations. The arrival of Caleta‑Car is therefore part of a broader strategy to strengthen the team and ensure a more solid defense. The club has also discussed other possible acquisitions, including evaluating a reinforcement with Van der Brempt, but the final decision remains pending.
As for the future, Sassuolo is preparing to continue its campaign with the aim of improving its position in the league table and consolidating its defence. Caleta‑Car expressed optimism about his role within the group, indicating that the team is ready to face the challenges that Serie A presents. With attention also turned to Leysen, the club looks ready to build a solid and dynamic defense for the upcoming matches.
