Tommaso Pobega

In February 2026, reports confirmed the transfer to Bologna became permanent after a €7 million obligatory buyout clause was triggered. This followed a deal structured in July 2025, reported as a €1 million loan fee plus the €7 million obligation, with some reports citing a total permanent transfer fee of €8 million. During the summer 2025 negotiations, Milan's asking price was reportedly €12 million, while Bologna's initial offers, like a loan with a €6 million option, were rejected. Throughout 2024 and early 2025, Bologna had a €12 million purchase option from a previous loan, which they consistently deemed too high and chose not to exercise.

Our valuation is driven by the confirmed transfer of Tommaso Pobega to Bologna. The deal structure, consistently reported as a €1 million loan followed by a €7 million obligatory purchase clause, provides a clear and definitive basis for the valuation. This final agreement was reached after extensive negotiations where Bologna successfully lowered Milan's initial €12 million asking price, solidifying the final fee as a reliable market indicator.
