Juan Freytes Transfer from Fluminense to Bologna
According to Corriere dello Sport, Bologna's management initially selected Juan Pablo Freytes and an agreement was reached regarding the duration and financial terms of the contract he would have had with the Italian club. The transfer is postponed until the summer, and positive relations between Bologna and the defender could potentially lead to the Argentinian joining Serie A with a six-month delay.
According to Tuttomercato, Bologna is following Juan Pablo Freytes. Bologna has reportedly reached a total agreement with Juan Pablo Freytes on his contract and salary and is also close to an agreement with Fluminense for the transfer fee, which is valued at around 8 million, possibly slightly less. Optimism is reported from Fluminense in Brazil, and it is stated that the defender is focused only on moving to Serie A. Juan Pablo Freytes is said to be ready and waiting for approval to travel to Italy.
Negotiations that could bring Juan Pablo Freytes to Bologna have stalled. According to Corriere dello Sport, this delay has not been well received by Freytes.

Bologna considers Freytes an important target for their defense and is taking a few days to evaluate the situation.
Paulo Angioni commented on Bologna's interest in Juan Freytes, stating that there is no possibility of negotiating for the player. He added that Freytes is a player Fluminense counts on and that there is no possibility of even discussing a transfer.
Tuttomercato reports that Juan Pablo Freytes appears to be the most likely player to join Bologna, but a sale is needed to create a vacancy before the transfer can be finalized.
Juan Pablo Freytes is nearing a move to Bologna. The only remaining points to be settled with Fluminense are the final economic details, which include future bonuses, but the transfer is not considered to be in doubt. The deal will also be beneficial for Alianza Lima, which owns 30% of the player's rights. According to Corriere dello Sport, Juan Pablo Freytes has already given his approval to move to Serie A.
The cost for Juan Pablo Freytes is between 7 and 8 million. Bologna's first offer of 5 million was rejected, according to Brazilian sources. Before the match against Sassuolo, Sporting director Di Vaio stated that the deal was not yet closed as was being said. The dialogue between the clubs is ongoing and the negotiation is entering a crucial phase. The player has already given his approval. A couple of other Serie A clubs, including Cagliari, are reportedly interested in Freytes. He has previously played as a left-back.

Despite the rejection, discussions between the two clubs remain open.
