Bologna have reportedly targeted Al-Nassr’s Brazilian winger Wesley Gassova after selling Dan Ndoye to Nottingham Forest.
The sale to the Premier League generated a huge profit for the club, as Ndoye had been bought from FC Basel for €16.45m in the summer of 2023 and sold on two years later for €42m plus a 20 per cent cut of the future resale fee.
He will prove a difficult figure to replace in the squad, having contributed nine goals and six assists in all competition last season.

According to the Corriere dello Sport, Bologna have identified Wesley Gassova as their target to take over the role.
The 20-year-old Brazilian had already been heavily linked with a move to Serie A earlier in the summer and is now a prime option for the Rossoblu.
He moved from Corinthians to Al-Nassr for €18m in August 2024, scoring one goal and providing three assists in 22 competitive games for the Saudi Pro League club.
It is believed that Al-Nassr would sell for the same price, but his €4m per season salary is a big problem, so he’d have to take a pay cut.
Other options mentioned by the Corriere dello Sport are Tottenham Hotspur owned Bryan Gil and Jonathan Rowe of Olympique Marseille.
