Bologna Transfer Market Takes a Clear Turn As Benjamin Dominguez Convinced Italiano
The Bologna transfer market is going in a pretty different direction, which might even be a bit counter-intuitive.
Even though there have been some big names interested in him recently, like Fiorentina, Lecce and Mallorca, Benjamin Dominguez is definitely not leaving.
Vincenzo Italiano cleared things up after a chat with the Argentine winger, deciding to keep him at the Rossoblù.
Dominguez, who’s happy in Bologna, had thought about a change of scenery just to keep things more consistent. But now things have changed.
Federico Bernardeschi is back, so there are five wingers, but it will all depend on how well the 2003-born player performs.
If he’s the brilliant Dominguez we saw in Verona, there’ll be no shortage of space and opportunities.
If, on the other hand, the lacklustre version of a few months ago reappears, the hierarchy could change.
Dallinga Under Pressure and Posch Departure Confirmed
So, Benjamin Dominguez is set to stay at Bologna until the end of the season.
The main topic of conversation shift all about Thjis Dallinga.
The Dutchman is playing for a big part of his future in the European matches against Celtic and Maccabi Tel-Aviv, after sitting on the bench for three league games in a row.
Italiano is giving him a big chance, but at Casteldebole, the transfer market is in the spotlight: Sartori and Di Vaio are keeping an eye on things in Italy and abroad, and they’ve got Lorenzo Lucca’s name in their notebooks.
The news was out there. It’s official now. Como have got Stefan Posch from Bologna, buying him for a fixed price. At the same time, the player has been loaned to Mainz until the end of the season.
He leaves Serie A after 96 appearances, scoring 8 goal. The last one was scored this season against Verona.
Como 1907 confirms that, following the fulfilment of the obligation to buy, Stefan Posch’s move from @Bolognafc1909 is now permanent.
Posch, who has been with Como this season, will now join @1FSVMainz05 on loan until the end of the season.
