Thiago Motta is leading Bologna to a tremendous season and is inevitably drawing the attention of the top European clubs. The fact that his contract runs out at the end of the season works in his favor. On the other hand, the Felsinei will try their best to keep ahold of him, La Gazzetta dello Sport relays (via DAZN).
The manager has been routinely linked to Juventus and Milan. Porto have joined the fray lately. He has a previous connection with PSG, where he played and got his start coaching-wise at the youth level, and with Barcelona, although his former teammate Deco downplayed their interest.
Conversely, Thiago Motta is being showered with love by the Bologna faithful in each home game. They even started a petition asking him to stay.
The Rossoblù are currently fourth in the standings. Qualifying for a European competition, perhaps even the Champions League, could convince him. However, he might also see it as a great partying gift, having elevated the team as much as possible.
The young boss isn’t in advanced talks with any suitor at this stage. If he leaves, he’ll go to the team that offers him the most compelling project.
Our Take on Thiago Motta
He has built something special in a short amount of time. It’d be an achievement if a Serie A powerhouse persuaded him. He’s choosy, which is totally fair, and the suspect is that he’ll wind up abroad next.
