the management of Bologna is already anticipating a departure from Thiago Motta

While Paris Saint-Germain has secured the arrival of Thiago Motta on its bench, management’s plan B in the event of failure in the Julian Nagelsmann file, the Italian club Bologna is moving up a gear internally to draw up a first list of potential successors if the current Italian coach were to pack up for Paris in the coming days. Indeed, according to our information, the management of the Rossoblù met to tick three first names likely to take over: Luca Gotti, Gabriele Cioffi and Andrea Pirlo. The profiles of Giuseppe Iachini and Roberto D’Aversa were also mentioned for post-Motta.

According to our indiscretions, owner Joey Saputo, president Claudio Fenucci, technical area manager Giovanni Sartori and sporting director Marco Di Vaio were quite confident of keeping Thiago Motta on their bench next season after several fruitful talks to prepare for the summer transfer window. But the PSG did not drop the case and seems to have convinced the former midfielder to come, in case of refusal of the post of Julian Nagelsmann. Bologna still hopes to keep Thiago Motta at the head of the club but prefers to protect itself by preparing for all possible scenarios.
