Bologna Champions League squad list: Iling-Junior crosses path with Aston Villa | OneFootball

Vincenzo Italian has dropped Jesper Karlson, Lorenzo De Silvestri, Mihajlo Ilic, Nicolò Cambiaghi, Oussama El Azzouzi and Benjamin Dominguez from Bologna‘s Champions League squad list but has included Lewis Ferguson and Samuel Iling-Junior.

Bologna have released their Champions League squad list for the league phase, dropping a few notable names.

Italiano did not include Karlson in the squad, and the same is true of veteran De Silvestri. Cambiaghi suffered a severe knee injury only a few weeks ago, so it was predictable that he would not be in the Rossoblu squad.

On the other hand, Aston Villa loanee Iling-Junior, a former Juventus winger, has been included in the list, and the same is true of Scotland international Ferguson, who will soon return after a cruciate ligament injury.

Bologna and Aston Villa will meet at Villa Park on October 22.

Bologna are the third Serie A club to confirm their Champions League list today after Juventus and Inter.

The Rossoblu will start their historic Champions League campaign at home against Shakhtar Donetsk and will also meet Liverpool, Aston Villa, Monaco, Lille, Benfica, Borussia Dortmund and Sporting CP.
