“Italian Serie A side Bologna FC have officially invited Keyon Ewurum for a trial in the upcoming days,” M. Global S. – Sport Agency said in a statement.
“We wish you the best of luck Keyon!”.
Officials from the Bologna FC Academy have invited Ewurum to travel to Italy and attend the trial between October 3 and 7.
Sources have told the Times of Malta, that Bologna FC are one of three Italian clubs who have shown interest in his players.
In fact, Serie A giants Juventus and Sassuolo have also sounded their interest in the player but have yet to make an official approach to Valletta FC.
