Bologna has drawn a line in the sand for anyone hoping to prise away their captain. Lewis Ferguson, the 26-year-old Scottish midfielder who has become the heartbeat of the club, carries a price tag of at least €20 million, roughly $22 million at current exchange rates.
Both Roma and Atalanta have registered their interest in signing Ferguson, setting the stage for a potential bidding war between two clubs with very different ambitions but a shared appreciation for midfield quality.
The deal dynamics
Ferguson’s contract with Bologna runs through June 2028, which gives the Italian club significant leverage in any negotiations.
The midfielder arrived at Bologna from Aberdeen back in July 2022. In the years since, he’s evolved from a promising Scottish talent into a Serie A captain.
