Bologna weigh €3 million early loan cut for Dovbyk

Artem Dovbyk joined Bologna on loan from Roma for a fee of €3 million.

The agreement includes a buy‑out clause of €17 million.

Bologna, the Emilian club, will cover his €3.6 million wages.

He has made five substitute appearances and has never started a match.

His only goal came in the early‑September draw against Sassuolo.

The Ukrainian striker has been hampered by physical problems, limiting his minutes in the first half of the season.

Early loan termination considered

Bologna, known as the Rossoblu, are weighing an early termination of the loan ahead of the January transfer window.

Coach Raffaele Palladino currently favours Odgaard as the central striker, and the recovery of Piccoli could further reduce Dovbyk’s standing.

Roma have not planned Dovbyk’s return in January and have structured their annual sports programme without his reinstatement.

Matteo Moretto reported on Fabrizio Romano’s YouTube channel that talks between the two clubs are expected in the coming weeks to assess the situation.

If the loan ends, a mid‑table Spanish club and a Turkish side have been mentioned as possible destinations.

Bologna could rely on Piccoli, adapt Odgaard, or turn to Jay Enem, who has scored a goal in 96 minutes across three matches.
