Bologna, Saputo ready for anything to retain Thiago Motta

The coach deflected when asked about his future

At the end of the thrilling game drawn with Juventus (3-3), a big celebration was staged at the Dall'Ara. Under an incessant rain, everyone rejoiced for winning a place in the Champions League. Lots of players thanked Thiago Motta for his excellent work. Parting words? Not really.

Saputo, Bologna’s number one, has no intention of losing the architect of the Felsina’s feat. Interviewed by DAZN, the Rossoblù è president was quite clear: "We will do everything, we meet him this week to try to continue together". The meeting should take place next Thursday, at least according to several rumors.

What about Thiago Motta? The Bologna coach avoided answering clearly about his future: "We have to enjoy the party, about the future we will talk internally with the president and communicate together what we will decide. For me the most important thing è this relationship that is created with the players. I look everyone in the face, I try to give them what they deserve", his words always to Dazn.

However, from the words used by so many Rossoblù players, the feeling è that this was Thiago Motta's last appearance, at the Dall'Ara, as Bologna coach. A lot of people see him on the Juventus bench next year. By the end of the week, the mystery will be unraveled.
