Bologna have set their sights on Brazilian talent Wesley Gassova, claim Sky Sport Italia, just a year after his transfer to Al-Nassr.

The versatile forward is 20 years old and has nine caps for Brazil at Under-20 level.

His performances in the Corinthians jersey earned him a lucrative €18m transfer to the Saudi Pro League for Al-Nassr in August 2024, where he became teammates with Cristiano Ronaldo.

He also worked under Italian coach Stefano Pioli for a few months.

Wesley Gassova attracts Bologna interest

Sky Sport Italia report that Bologna have decided Wesley Gassova is the right name in case they opt to sell Dan Ndoye this summer.

That remains very much in doubt, especially following the comments in today’s press conference from CEO Claudio Fenucci , who assured there was no need to sell anymore players after Sam Beukema to Napoli.

Wesley can play on the right or left of a trident attack, or even in a more central supporting striker role.

He made 22 appearances for Al-Nassr in all competition, scoring one goal with three assists.
