Mitchell Dijks - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Excluded from squad Dijks hasn't been called up for Sunday's game versus Lazio because he's going to leave the club, Il Resto Del Carlino reports.

Impact Dijks was in the same situation last January but then didn't actually leave, although he featured very sparingly. After the departure of Aaron Hickey, the club signed two different players in his role, Charalampos Lykogiannis and Andrea Cambiaso. Dijks could perhaps be reintegrated only after the end of the window if his transfer doesn't materialize.

He has been the main beneficiary of Lorenzo De Silvestri's absence and could stay in the XI a little longer. He has posted two shots, three chances, 13 crosses and three interceptions in the last five appearances. Bologna will face Juventus away Saturday.
