Unione Sportiva Sassuolo Calcio - also known as US Sassuolo Calcio or more commonly simply as Sassuolo - is an Italian professional football club based in the Emilia-Romagna region and currently playing in the country's top tier Serie A. The club plays home games at Mapei Stadium – Città del Tricolore.
Founded in 1920, the club has spent time in the lower leagues of Italian football but has played in Serie A since 2013-14. The team is easily identified by their striking green (or green and black) kit which originates from a donation by England's Lancaster Rovers FC who were unable to fulfill a fixture against Sassuolo and gifted the kits by way of an apology.
