The battle to buy the club seemed lost after current Bologna President promised to inject more funds into the club and pushing away the Tacopina-Saputo bid. But The Rosso Blu will be associated with the bleu-blanc-noir for the foreseeable future.
Tacopina will be back in Bologna on Monday to finalize the deal. No news whether Joey Saputo will be with him or not.
