Laurienté eagerly awaits Bologna bid to Sassuolo
Armand Laurienté is by no means eager to remain at Sassuolo, even after promotion to Serie A, but Bologna are keeping a close eye on him.
The versatile forward plays primarily on the left side of attack, but can also work on the right or in a central role.
While the Neroverdi want to keep hold of the 26-year-old after making the return to the top flight, the player is waiting to see if other opportunities open up for him elsewhere.
Laurienté intrigued by Bologna
There have been a few approaches from abroad, but he is to be considered a target on the long Bologna list, having placed his name there a year ago, when Sassuolo rejected the proposals even after dropping into Serie B.
Sassuolo purchased him from Lorient in 2022 for €10.1m plus bonuses, and as part of that deal still owe his former club a 20 per cent cut of the sell-on fee.
Under contract until June 2027, Laurienté contributed 18 goals and six assists in 33 Serie B appearances last season, helping them top the table.
