A restyling view of the Champions League under the Two Towers. A few days after the official opening of the negotiations, the transfer plots in Bologna heat up, with sporting director Sartori busy searching for the right additions to hand over to Mister Italiano. Starting from the defense, where the two names chosen to reinforce the side lanes are close: Robin Gosens and Emil Holm. For the former Inter player, the distance between the Bolognese and Union Berlin has narrowed, after the Germans’ initial request for 10 million and the no to the loan with right of redemption proposed by the rossoblù. At 8 million, with all due respect to Benfica, another suitor for the former Atalanta player can be closed. The one who hasn’t been redeemed by the Orobics is Emil Holm, so Bologna has to look over his shoulder at Juventus, who are interested in taking the Swede and then leaving him on loan for a year at Genoa. On Monday Di Vaio and Fenucci will meet Spezia to speed up the deal, which should be around 2 million in loan plus 6 million in buyout. However, another target for the defensive department, the French Lilian Brassier of Brest, betrothed to Roberto De Zerbi’s Marseille, fades away. The alternative remains the Croatian Pongracic from Lecce. On the offensive front, much will depend on the fate of Zirzkee, for which Milan have been moving for some time (reaching an agreement on the clause and contract) but clashing with the commissions requested by the agent Kia Joorabchian. In the last few hours it seems that Manchester United have also carried out a survey for the Dutchman, from which Bologna would collect 24 million (16 destined for Bayern for the resale percentage). Money that the rossoblù would invest in a new center forward, who could speak Greek. The favorites are in fact Vangelis Pavlidis of AZ Alkmaar (who however ensure Portugal is one step away from Benfica) and Fotis Ioannidis of Panathinaikos. Despite the competition from another Portuguese team, Sporting (after Gyökeres), Bologna is serious, putting a figure of over 20 million euros on the table (18 + bonus). If the deal were to go through it would be the most expensive purchase in the rossoblù’s history. For a Champions League-sized Bologna.
