Luciano Valente, an Italian midfielder currently playing for Groningen in the Eredivisie, has garnered interest from several Italian clubs, including Bologna. Despite this interest, a move to Italy has not yet occurred. The 20-year-old, who was born in the Netherlands to an Italian father from Rome, has been associated with Serie A since Torino initially showed interest in him. Bologna is pursuing Valente as they look for an offensive winger to replace Orsolini, who is injured, but they are facing competition from other clubs such as Lazio. Lazio is also interested in Valente as they consider alternatives to their complicated negotiations with Chelsea for Casadei. Valente, who has played 20 matches this season and scored twice against Heerenveen, remains a sought-after player, although no concrete offers have resulted in a transfer to Italy so far.
