Roma announced that it had signed Castro in a reported €35m move, with Dovbyk's deal coming shortly afterwards.

The Ukrainian will join Bologna for the 2026-2027 campaign, and the club will have the option to make the transfer permanent for a further €18m next summer.

Dovbyk joined Roma from Girona in August 2024 and finished that campaign as the club's top scorer in all competitions, netting 17 goals in 45 appearances.

However, he struggled for fitness in 2025-2026, playing just 18 games in total and scoring just three times.

Dovbyk will be the first Ukrainian to play for Bologna.
