Bologna now sceptical about signing Juventus defender

Bologna are now doubtful about signing Juventus defender Juan Cabal. The club had been in discussions to bring the player in to replace Jhon Lucumi, who moved to the Bianconeri. However, recent doubts have arisen concerning Cabal's fitness. Cabal has struggled to make an impact since joining Juventus under Luciano Spalletti, with his performances raising concerns about his ability to secure a regular place in the team.

The manager's departure has further diminished Cabal's chances, as Lucumi's arrival weakens his position even more. Bologna has been actively seeking to strengthen their defense, but Cabal's recent poor form has raised significant concerns. He is being urged to prove his fitness to convince Bologna that he can remain fit for the long term.

Cabal's past injuries and lack of involvement under Spalletti have made his future at Juventus uncertain. While a move to Bologna could provide a fresh start and more playing time, Bologna's doubts about his fitness may force Juventus to explore other options. Until Cabal demonstrates he can maintain good health, the transfer remains uncertain.
