Summary
- Bologna and Torino negotiating for Asllani, Nicolussi Caviglia, and Oristanio
- Asllani wants €2m per season wages, stalling Bologna's deal with Inter
- Torino interested in Asllani and Nicolussi Caviglia, seeking solution for Ilic
- Venezia valued Nicolussi Caviglia at €10m, also courted by Torino

As of August 20th, 2025, a transfer dance is unfolding between Italian clubs Bologna and Torino, with three midfielders at the center of the action: Kristjan Asllani, Hans Nicolussi Caviglia, and Gaetano Oristanio.
Bologna had previously agreed on most of the details to sign Asllani from Inter Milan, but the negotiations stalled as the midfielder demanded a €2 million per season wage. This led Bologna to turn their attention to Nicolussi Caviglia, who Venezia values at €10 million and is also a target for Torino.
Torino, meanwhile, is keeping a close eye on Asllani, who has been informed that he will have limited playing time at Inter and should seek a new club. The Granata are also trying to find a solution for Ivan Ilic, who struggled in pre-season matches under new coach Marco Baroni.
