Bologna, September 15, 2026 – Possible upheaval at Bologna, reflections underway on Domenico Tedesco after the loss in Naples. As announced yesterday, this morning there was a face-to-face meeting between the Rossoblù management and the coach.
More time for Domenico Tedesco?
Until yesterday, calm was filtering through Casteldebole and the intention was to support the coach in this first phase of the Rossoblù rebuilding, giving him time as was done before for Italiano and Thiago Motta. Something in the meeting did not go as planned, with the coach effectively implying that he would continue to stick to his own beliefs in terms of group management and tactics. In short, no change to a script that so far has shown cracks on the field and in the locker room.
That Tedesco is a ‘hombre vertical‘, not prone to compromises, is evident from his history and Bologna knew it. However, given the situation, they evidently expected more flexibility to resolve a complex, complicated, and dangerous start to the season, also in terms of standings. Hence the reflection.
Also because a not rosy situation is being analyzed in detail, but also the moment, the moods, and a path that in recent weeks has marked steps backward not in line with the words spoken by management and coach. One point in four matches, Tarozzi’s expulsion on debut and Tedesco’s on the third matchday.
From reflections to calls
Palladino, Tudor, and Pioli on the list of potential replacements. Between tonight and tomorrow morning, reflections could turn into decisions. Tedesco at risk of dismissal, in short.
