Bologna Eye Shakhtar's Eguinaldo Ahead of Summer Transfer Window
Bologna are reportedly considering a summer move for Shakhtar Donetsk forward Eguinaldo, following an eye-catching performance against them in the UEFA Champions League. The 20-year-old Brazilian earned a penalty with his relentless pressing, and his aerial ability and physical presence left a lasting impression on the Italian side’s scouting department.
While no formal offer has been made yet, sources close to the club suggest Bologna are closely monitoring the situation, especially with growing speculation around the potential departure of Swiss international Dan Ndoye in the upcoming transfer window. Should Ndoye leave, Eguinaldo is reportedly at the top of Bologna’s replacement shortlist.
The young Brazilian joined Shakhtar from Vasco da Gama in the summer of 2023. Since his arrival, he has featured in 49 matches, scoring 8 goals and providing 8 assists — modest numbers, but worth noting given his natural role as a winger rather than a central striker.
