Team Talk reports on Brentford's interest in signing Jhon Lucumi from Bologna. Brentford have shown interest in signing Jhon Lucumi from Bologna. Bologna's asking price remains a key obstacle.

According to Team Talk, Brentford is planning to start discussions regarding the potential transfer of Jhon Lucumi. The club is set to reach out about acquiring the Colombian defender, who currently plays for Bologna and has a £24 million release clause in his contract valid until June 2026. Nevertheless, Brentford and other interested clubs are hoping to negotiate a deal for less than the release clause as Lucumi approaches the final year of his contract. It has been reported that Lucumi is eager to leave Bologna this summer, which has heightened interest from numerous clubs, including Brentford. The Premier League side is one of several English teams keen on signing the 26-year-old centre-back, who has been noted for his ball-playing skills and calmness on the pitch.
