Bologna have joined Inter, Nottingham Forest and more in the hunt for Udinese defender Jaka Bijol, while Milan plan a meeting for Lazar Samardzic on Monday.

The Friulani are expected to sell several big players this summer, having narrowly avoided relegation on the final day of the season.

Among those who impressed the most at EURO 2024 was 25-year-old Slovenia international Bijol, who now has a whole host of clubs lining up for his services.

That list keeps growing, as Bologna are the latest to show an interest with Sportitalia suggesting the asking price is now circa €17m.

Others in the running include Atalanta, Nottingham Forest and VfB Stuttgart.

Udinese field Bijol and Samardzic offers

Meanwhile, Sportitalia also claim that Milan have set up a meeting with Udinese for Monday to discuss Samardzic.

They had already approached his father and entourage over the last few days to see if he would be open to a San Siro switch and the cost of the move would be €25m, plus the commission.

This caused problems in the past, as Samardzic had already undergone an Inter medical when at the last minute his father demanded extra commission and the club walked away.
