Yesterday’s match against Sassuolo may have been Aaron Hickey’s last performance at Dall’Ara with the Bologna shirt. The 19 year old Scottish full-back, a great protagonist this season with 5 goals, is one step away from moving to Arsenal. Last week’s trip by the management of the Emilian club to London to finalize the agreement with the Gunners was profitable, the definition of the deal is expected in the coming days.
THE SITUATION – Hickey will follow the trajectory of his former teammate Tomiyasu, who also arrived at Arsenal after a great season at Bologna. The general agreement was found on 23/24 million plus bonuses, Arteta can smile because he has won the competition from several Italian clubs. Napoli was the one who had taken the most concrete steps, there was also an interest from Milan. And to think that Bologna had paid him less than two million from Hearts. A rich capital gain that makes President Saputo happy, Hickey is one step away from moving to the Premier League.
