Il Bologna observes Euro2024 with relative tranquility, strong in its desire to retain Riccardo Calafiori while being aware of the growing interest of the big Italian and foreign clubs in him. Above all that of Juventus who, once the midfield issues have been sorted out and some transfers have been defined, could sink the blow.
In the event of the departure of the Italian central defender, or alternatively of Jhon Lucumì, Sartori and Di Vaio would be forced to move to find a high-level replacement. And for the Gazzetta dello Sport the good name in this sense could be that of Marin Pongracica central defender owned by Lecce who also stood out at Euro 2024 as a starter for eliminated Croatia after a solid, quality season at Via del Mare which contributed decisively to the Apulian side’s survival in the last championship.
“During the season he proved that he is a central defender, even if young, very important and he proved it. Does Manna like him? He is in the thoughts of many clubs, I don’t know how much Napoli wants him but I’m sure, knowing Conte, that Pongracic he didn’t miss it”, said the director of the technical area of the Salento club in recent hours, Pantaleo Corvino talking about the requests for the defender.
