Bologna are opening new contract talks with Gaston Ramirez.
The Rossoblu are keen to tighten their grip on the 20-year-old as he continues to attract the attention of other clubs.
"I don't think an agreement will be reached in one day," Rossoblu sporting director Roberto Zanzi told Sky Sport Italia.
"But it's normal that a player like him is being followed by other sides because he has some unique talent.
"We, however, want to keep him here for the entire season and we want to be able to offer what he expects."
