Bologna FC pre-season and squad developments

Overview

Bologna FC is navigating a transitional pre-season period marked by squad adjustments and defensive challenges. During early training camps in Italy, the team utilized rest days to recover following a 0-4 friendly loss.

As the pre-season progresses toward matches against opponents like Brighton & Hove Albion, manager Domenico Tedesco is managing a depleted defensive line. The squad faces several absences due to transfers, such as Lucumì nearing a move to Juventus and Ilic moving to Cesena on loan, alongside injuries to Vitik and Casale, and work permit issues for Alhassan.

Additionally, reports have emerged regarding transfer interest in midfielder Lewis Ferguson, noting that Rangers FC reportedly abandoned pursuit of the player due to Bologna’s high valuation, which was estimated at up to €25 million.
