Overview
- Three mid‑July reports present different versions of the same story, with Football Italia saying talks are advanced, an early Crypto Briefing piece describing a near‑term loan‑plus‑obligation for €3.5 million, and a later Crypto Briefing article claiming a €3.5 million permanent deal.
- The player is Rahim Alhassane, a 24‑year‑old Niger international who joined Real Oviedo in July 2024 and is contracted to the club through June 2028, which gives Oviedo leverage in any sale.
- The fee being discussed — €3.5 million to around €4 million — is a clear premium over commonly reported market valuations of about €1.5–€1.8 million, meaning Bologna would be paying above the player’s estimated worth.
- Bologna’s interest is driven by a need for depth behind first‑choice left‑back Miranda and reported competition from other Serie A clubs such as Torino has been noted.
- The situation remains unresolved: outlets disagree on whether a deal is done or still being negotiated, so confirmation from the clubs or the player is the next key development to watch.
