Keito Nakamura, a 25-year-old Japanese international who achieved 12 goals and provided 3 assists in Ligue 1 with Reims, has been suggested as a transfer option for Bologna. Nevertheless, Bologna appears to be prioritizing players who have experience in European competitions. The club is in the process of evaluating potential candidates for a priority winger role during a meeting with key decision-makers, which includes CEO Claudio Fenucci, directors Giovanni Sartori and Marco Di Vaio, and coach Vincenzo Italiano. Despite Nakamura's impressive performance statistics, the club is reportedly inclined towards acquiring players who have familiarity with European competitions to boost the squad's quality. Nakamura is contracted with Reims until June 30, 2028, and his current market value is estimated at €8.00 million according to Transfermarkt.
