Tommaso Pobega on Bologna's radar as Milan clear house
It is a new beginning at Milan this summer under the stewardship of new manager Massimiliano Allegri. The midfield especially is where a lot of changes are taking place. Tijjani Reijnders has gone to Manchester City, while Luka Modric has come in. Contacts continue with Ardon Jashari of Club Brugge among others. However this means that there will be others leaving too. One of these outgoings will be that of Tommaso Pobega. Bologna are interested in signing him, after he spent the last season on loan at the club, winning the Coppa Italia. It is believed that they have made a concrete offer to Milan for the midfielder, instead of exercising the €12m buy option that was with the loan deal. Allegri will evaluate the player during pre season camp before selling him. Advertisement As per Pobega is not the only Milan player that Bologna could end up buying this summer. It is believed that the Rossoneri have also offered midfielder Yacine Adli to them. He had a good season for Fiorentina on loan in 2024/25. Another player that the two clubs could soon be negotiating for is Swiss forward Noah Okafor. The 25 year old signed for the club in 2023 but has failed to really get going. Kaulik Mitra | GIFN
