Bologna have reportedly placed Gift Orban on their shortlist as they plan for the upcoming summer transfer window.
The Nigerian striker is currently on loan at Hellas Verona from Bundesliga side TSG Hoffenheim.
The 23-year-old is set to return to Hoffenheim after Verona opted against activating a permanent deal.
Former Olympique Lyon attacker Orban has scored seven goals in 28 league appearances this season.
However, he has not featured in Verona’s last four matches following an incident involving a fan after their home loss to AC Milan.
Reports from Transferfeed value him between €8m and €10m, with Bologna viewing him as a cost-effective option, while his familiarity with Serie A is also seen as an advantage.
