Bologna veteran to sign new two-year deal

Veteran striker Marco Di Vaio will stay at Bologna after agreeing a new two-year contract with the Serie A club. The 34-year-old's existing deal had been due to expire in the summer, but he will now be staying on. Di Vaio joined Bologna from Genoa in 2009 and earlier this year turned down an option to return to Juventus. He is the club's leading scorer with 18 league goals this term, helping Bologna to 10th in the table from 30 games.

No problems

"I have reached an agreement with the club," Di Vaio said. "There were no problems. "I wanted to remain and the club wanted to keep me. I owe everything to this city and this club. "I am delighted because my dream of ending my career at Bologna is realised. "I want to thank the club, which at times of difficulty, has found the financial strength for my new contract."
