Bologna are moving aggressively in the summer transfer market and have now zeroed in on two Juventus talents: Fabio Miretti and Samuel Mbangula.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport via TuttoJuve, Bologna have opened negotiations for Miretti, who spent last season on loan at Genoa.
The 21-year-old midfielder struggled for minutes early on under Alberto Gilardino but found form under Patrick Vieira, thriving in a more advanced midfield role.
Bologna are pushing for a permanent deal, while Juventus are leaning toward a dry loan to maintain control over the player’s future. The situation remains open, but Bologna are willing to make a strong financial offer to tip the scales.
Bologna Transfer Targets
Sticking with Juventus, Samuel Mbangula has also caught Bologna’s attention. The 21-year-old Belgian winger was close to joining Nottingham Forest earlier this summer, but ultimately the deal collapsed.
Now, Werder Bremen and Bologna are monitoring the situation.
Should Dan Ndoye leave the club – Napoli are reportedly interested – Mbangula could be brought in as his replacement. The move would further strengthen Vincenzo Italiano’s attacking options.
Beyond Juventus, the Coppa Italia winners are exploring deals for:
-
Kristjan Asllani (Inter) – A deep-lying playmaker admired for his technical quality.
-
Matteo Pessina (Monza) – A proven Serie A midfielder who would bring experience and leadership.
-
Eric da Silva Moreira (Nottingham Forest) – A 19-year-old winger under contract until 2028. Bologna sees him as a long-term investment, with raw talent and speed on the right flank.
