“Bologna wants to hold on to him, but Juventus’ interest is undeniably strong,” Ivan Zazzaroni, the editor of Corriere dello Sport, noted.
As negotiations progress, it remains to be seen if Juventus will meet Bologna’s asking price or if Bologna will succeed in retaining their promising defender.
Calafiori, known for his robust defending and potential, has attracted significant attention, positioning him as a noteworthy player in this transfer window.
Fans and analysts alike are eagerly awaiting further developments, with speculation rife on whether Calafiori will don the Juventus kit in the upcoming season.
