Orsolini’s exclusion from the squad for the European Championship has caused discussion in recent days. After a season as an absolute protagonist, the winger was unable to win the Azzurra and Spalletti shirts. Despite the disappointment, however, the affection and support of the rossoblù fans has not been lacking at this moment. In fact, a banner was hung in Casteldebole in honor of him, then republished by the footballer with heartfelt thanks, which was titled: «Bear you are special, Bologna your national team. Forward Bologna».
The exclusion of Orsolini from Spalletti’s squad
The winger, who started in blue last Tuesday at Dall’Ara in the match against Türkiye, was cut from Italy’s final list. A failure probably resulting from the latest training sessions and the decidedly insignificant performance in the friendly. In that match, perhaps to test his offensive skills and abilities, Spalletti put Orso on the field from the first minute, hoping for an evidently very different outcome. The choice, however, is destined to continue to be discussed, as the number 7 was the only one fully capable of covering the right wing with inverted foot, perhaps acting as a substitute for Chiesa or playing together on parallel areas of the pitch. Furthermore, the absences of Berardi and Zaniolo further exacerbated the situation disappointmentgiven the greater chances of participating in the competition.
The disappointment of a point of reference
Although in recent seasons Orsolini has guaranteed great continuity, reaching double figures among the Italians with the most goals in the ranking of the best scorers in Serie A, the player will therefore watch the Tournament from home. For Bologna, the exterior represents a “stepchild“, therefore the disappointment among the fans is evident and palpable. It will be necessary to help the footballer to recharge his batteries, to try to guide him towards a further step of personal growth in view of the next Champions Leaguewhere he will still be the protagonist.
Karlsson’s words
Also yesterday, Jesper Karlsson declared to the Swedish newspaper Hallands Nyheter: “I want to stay in Bologna”, confirming his ambitions. And, above all, the desire for revenge after a season not at the highest levels.
