Gasperini has been following Jhon Lucumi since his time at Atalanta and would like him as a reinforcement for their three-man defense. Lucumi, currently one of the most sought-after defenders in Serie A, has been closely watched by several clubs, including Roma, who explored his valuation with Bologna. However, Bologna has shown no intention to sell unless his €28 million release clause, valid until July 15, is met. Despite interest from other clubs like Real Madrid, Lucumi remains committed to Bologna for now, expressing happiness with the club and his current life there.
