Man United & Chelsea Overtake Inter Milan & Napoli In The Race For Bologna Coppa Italia Hero – Price Jacked Up To €40M | OneFootball

Man United and Chelsea are now ahead of Inter Milan and Napoli in the race to sign Bologna winger Dan Ndoye.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews. They report that Bologna now want a fee of €40 million for the Swiss international.

Dan Ndoye has thrived in his last two seasons with Bologna.

The 24-year-old really showed his quality with his winning goal for the Rossoblu in the Coppa Italia final against AC Milan.

However, in reality Ndoye has provided far more than just the big moments.

The former Basel winger’s pace and technical skill have been a key outlet for Bologna under both Thiago Motta and Vincenzo Italiano.

Ndoye’s form has certainly not gone unnoticed by the big clubs in Serie A.

Last summer, Inter had eyed up a move for the Bologna winger. In fact, they scouted his performances for Switzerland at EURO 2024.

Inter’s idea would have been to use Ndoye as a wingback. He was a prime candidate to back up – and, in the long term, replace – Denzel Dumfries on their right flank.

Now, however, it looks to be Marseille’s Luis Henrique who is at the top of Inter’s list at wingback.

Meanwhile, Napoli have also shown an interest Ndoye. In the January transfer window, they offered Bologna €20 million plus add-ons for the Swiss.

However, the Emilian club turned that bid down. They want a considerably larger fee.

Tuttosport report that this summer, Bologna would aim to cash in to the tune of €40 million for Ndoye.

And the calibre of clubs interested suggests that this is far from an unreasonable demands.

Tuttosport report that the big clubs in the Premier League are taking an interest.

The Turin-based newspaper report that both Manchester United and Chelsea have identified Ndoye as a major target for this summer.
