Bologna’s Jhon Lucumì emerges as possible defensive reinforcement for Roma

After securing a long-term deal for Angelino and completing the signing of Buba Sangaré, Roma are looking for another defender.

Giallorossi sporting director Florent Ghisolfi is rumored to have set his sights on Bologna defender Jhon Lucumì.

Lucumì proved himself to be one of Bologna’s protagonists under Thiago Motta last season.

According to English news portal TeamTalk, a deal for Lucumì appears difficult at the moment since Bologna’s request is around 25 million euros.

Furthermore, the sale of Calafiori to Arsenal now seems imminent, so an excellent proposal will be needed to convince Bologna to sell their Colombian centre-back.
