Mangala is on the expanded list for Bologna according to certain Italian sources. The interest from Bologna comes amid a period of uncertainty for Mangala, who is recovering from a knee injury that has sidelined him since January. While still under contract with Lyon, Mangala's future remains unclear, with Bologna being one of several clubs reportedly monitoring his situation. Despite this interest, no concrete offers have been made, and Mangala is focused on his recovery and returning to full fitness.
