Bologna is set on acquiring Alexis Saelemaekers from Milan this upcoming summer, following his impressive performance during his loan spell. The 24-year-old Belgian forward struggled to establish himself during his three-year tenure with the Rossoneri, leading to his loan move to Rossoblu last summer in a bid to regain confidence.
Saelemaekers, on loan from Milan, has surpassed expectations under Thiago Motta this season, contributing three goals and three assists in 25 league appearances, notably excelling in Bologna’s dynamic attacking setup.
According to today’s Gazzetta dello Sport, Bologna is unequivocal about their intentions for Saelemaekers, expressing readiness to exercise their €9.5 million buy option to secure him permanently from Milan in the summer.
Simultaneously, the Rossoblu are actively pursuing Thiago Motta to continue as their coach for the next season, initiating discussions on a potential contract extension for the skilled tactician.
