If Motta misses, Bologna goes for Sarri

As reported by Gazzetta, Saputo cares about Motta just as Motta cares about Saputo, about the whole club, about Bologna. The renewal is a question on the table: Thiago (as said several times) would like greater centrality in decisions and it is clear that even a city in love could convince him to extend the expiring agreement that the club would like until 2026. Will it happen? «The first step to be made will be with Thiago – says sporting director Di Vaio on Radio Serie A -. He has done an incredible job improving the team: the first objective is to talk to him and listen to his ideas. There is no need to give away players, we want to confirm ourselves and compete in Europe with the best players we have.” Here, but what if Motta (sought in Italy, in the Premier League, which fascinates him quite a bit, in Spain, Portugal and France) doesn’t stay having not found satisfactory bases of agreement with Bologna? Reluctantly, Bologna would go for other profiles, essentially four: a shortlist of names who, apart from one, would have already been familiar with the double commitment between the championship and Europe. The whispers say that an indirect poll for Maurizio Sarri was staged.
