Roma could choose to terminate Dovbyk’s loan at Bologna

Roma could choose to terminate Dovbyk’s loan at Bologna Artem Dovbyk’s future could change again during the season. The Ukrainian striker, who moved from Roma to Bologna during the last summer transfer window, has so far failed to establish himself at the Emilian club. His record shows only one goal, accompanied by performances that have not fully met expectations. His coaching relationship with Raffaele Palladino also appears to have failed to produce the desired results, fueling rumors of a possible early end to his time at the Rossoblu. The situation will be discussed between the two clubs. According to Il Messaggero , a meeting is scheduled between Bologna and Roma in the coming days to evaluate the striker’s position. The Bolognese club is reportedly considering terminating the loan before its due date, given the player’s difficulties. A possible separation, however, will not depend solely on Bologna’s wishes, as the agreements signed during the summer include specific conditions for changing the striker’s destination. The key issue concerns the transfer formula itself. The contract stipulates that only Roma can decide to terminate Dovbyk’s loan early, thus maintaining control over the Ukrainian’s eventual return to the capital. Bologna would not be able to unilaterally terminate the agreement, but would need to obtain the Giallorossi’s consent. This clause requires an agreement between the parties before any changes are made and gives Roma a key role in the upcoming evaluations. Another crucial factor will be the possible future of Dovbyk. Without a club willing to welcome the striker, it appears unlikely that Roma will agree to amend the current agreements. The Giallorossi will need to evaluate possible solutions, including based on their own transfer needs, avoiding a return without concrete prospects. The meeting with Bologna will serve to clarify the intentions of the two clubs, but an early termination of the loan remains, for now, only a possibility. The Ukrainian’s future will therefore depend on the opportunities that may arise in the coming weeks.
