Kevin-Prince Boateng says meeting Sassuolo coach Roberto De Zerbi is the best thing to happen to him at this stage in his career.

The 31-year-old signed for Neroverdi this summer on a free transfer and has been a huge hit with two goals in their first three league matches.

Boateng has been key for Sassuolo and emerged as their poster boy but the former AC Milan man has given credit to his head coach.

''He [De Zerbi] gives me what I need today on the field-freedom, but with so many options. He's a genius for how you can see football,'' the former Ghana international told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

''It's teaching me to always find the right position, in every game. I am lucky to have had 'right coach at the right time'.''
