According to Tuttomercato, Bologna was another Serie A club that pursued Lorenzo Lucca. The club held advanced talks for the striker from Moncalieri and had the player's approval for a potential move. However, for the transfer to be completed, the Rossoblù needed to first sell Thijs Dallinga to recover the 15 million euro investment made on the Dutch forward in the summer of 2024. The former Toulouse player ultimately stayed, and while Ciro Immobile did leave for Paris FC, this happened after Lucca's move to Nottingham was already official.
