Calvin Ramsay: Bologna return with huge bid, Aberdeen left with big decision to make
The 18-year-old defender is highly sought-after by the Italian Serie A outfit, who are no strangers to the Scottish market after signing Aaron Hickey from Hearts 18 months ago.
With their Danish right wing-back Andreas Skov Olsen expected to depart to Belgian side Brugge, Bologna need to reinforce that part of the pitch and have identified Ramsay as their No 1 target.

Hide AdRamsay has been monitored by several clubs in England and Eintracht Frankfurt in Germany, but Bologna’s interest is the firmest by far. They had an offer in the region of £3.5m booted out by the Dons this week, but have returned with a reported fee believed to be in the region of £4.8m.
If Sinisa Mihajlovic’s men do manage to tempt Aberdeen into selling, the fee would set an outgoing record for the north-east club, eclipsing the £3m recouped when Scott McKenna was sold to Nottingham Forest.
