🎥 Bologna celebrate Coppa Italia, chants for Italiano😍
Bologna, the party is here. Yesterday afternoon in the Emilian capital, a real show in red and blue hues took place, with the team parading through the city streets on an open-top bus.
Thirty thousand, this is the number of people present under the two towers to celebrate a historic milestone, which had been missing for 51 years.
The architects of this year's miracle are Vincenzo Italiano and his terrible boys, who after the feat of twelve months - qualifying for the Champions League - managed to surpass themselves with the victory of the Coppa Italia.
The scenes experienced yesterday afternoon were beautiful, with a unleashed Orsolini and captain De Silvestri.
It all went on for a good part of the day and it doesn't matter if the end of the season took away from Bologna the possibility of qualifying again for the Champions League.
A trophy is forever, it is destined to fill the trophy case and be passed down from father to son, as happened 51 years ago.
A side note, regarding Italiano.
The former Fiorentina coach, by choosing Bologna, may have taken the toughest road. Anyone would have had only to lose by taking over a team that seemed to have reached its peak.
Italiano, however, thanks to his work and his connection with the city, has built a work of art.
It's normal, then, that the entire red and blue people hope for his reconfirmation, and yesterday there were also chants in his favor. To be seen if it will be enough to ward off the interest of Milan.

Sancho hesitates, Roma consider Jonathan Rowe
Jadon Sancho does not appear entirely convinced of Roma as his next destination. The Manchester United player, born in 2000, doesn't seem convinced about a move to the Giallorossi as he does not wish to reduce his salary and favors playing in the Champions League this season. As a result, the capital club, writes La Gazzetta dello Sport, has reportedly turned to Jonathan Rowe, the English winger from Marseille who is at odds with De Zerbi's team. Massara, an expert on French football, knows him well and the profile fits well within the Giallorossi's possibilities. Important news is expected in the next 48 hours: if Sancho doesn't show signs of definitive openness, the sporting director will strongly focus on Rowe to avoid the competition of Premier League clubs.

Sébastien Haller leaves Dortmund for Utrecht after stint marked by cancer recovery and near-misses
DORTMUND, Germany (AP) — Sébastien Haller's eventful three years at Borussia Dortmund ended Monday with a transfer to Dutch club Utrecht. It ended a stint with the German club which began with a cancer diagnosis but during his time there Haller almost won the Bundesliga, reached the final of the Champions League, and won the African Cup of Nations with Ivory Coast. He found himself increasingly sidelined at Dortmund, though, and spent last season on loan. 'Sébastien has written a special story here,' Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl said in a statement Monday. Weeks after signing for Dortmund in 2022, and before playing a game, Haller was diagnosed with a testicular tumor during the team's preseason camp. After two operations and a course of chemotherapy, he returned to action just six months later. Nine Bundesliga goals from Haller in the second half of the 2022-23 season put Dortmund on the verge of a long-awaited Bundesliga title but the team fell short in the final minutes of the season. Injuries and inconsistent form meant Haller's role in the Champions League final a year later was as a late substitute when Dortmund lost 2-0 to Real Madrid. It was to be his last game for Dortmund before loans last season with Leganes in Spain and then Utrecht. Haller returns on a one-season contract to familiar surroundings at Utrecht, where his prolific scoring a decade ago helped to launch his career. He scored six times in 18 games on loan there last season to help the team finish fourth in the Dutch league, which put the team into the Europa League qualifying rounds. ___ AP soccer: The Associated Press
