Federico Bernardeschi has signed a new deal with Bologna which ties him to the team until June 2029. The club and the attacker have already started negotiations a month ago, showing that both parties are enthusiastic about continuing the collaboration. The previous contract, signed two years ago, included a one-year extension option, which would have been activated if the player and the club were satisfied with the work done. Now, however, Bologna is proposing to renegotiate the agreement with a new one-year pact, but with an option to extend until 2029, so as to guarantee greater long-term stability.
The decision arises from the fact that, despite the possibility of extending as early as 2028, the numbers required for the option were too high to close the agreement quickly. Therefore, the club has opted for a more flexible contract, which allows the extension option to be renegotiated at a later date. Bernardeschi expressed satisfaction with the trust that Bologna has shown in him, underlining that the team has become a "paradise" for him where he can express himself at his best.
The player, who made his career at top-level clubs such as Juventus and won the European Championship with the Italian national team, has proven to be a key element for Bologna. His recent performances, in particular the match against Cagliari, where he contributed with goals and assists, have strengthened the club's belief that Bernardeschi is a fundamental value for the future. Bologna, together with Milan and Monza, is careful to maintain a competitive offensive department and sees Bernardeschi as a pillar in achieving the season's objectives.
With the new contract in place, Bernardeschi will be able to concentrate on his role without worries related to the security of his future. Bologna, on the other hand, will be able to plan their team strategy with greater certainty, knowing they have a quality player available for the next few years. The agreement, if confirmed, will be a sign of stability and mutual trust between the club and the player, paving the way for a successful collaboration in the next championships.
