This ends a wonderful era, we experienced those emotions and moments together, without forgetting anyone who was part of it from last season too. I want to publicly thank the fans for all they gave us, their support at home and away," Motta told Sky Italia.
This team made history for this club, I thank the city for its welcome from the first day to the last. My staff and I gave our all to bring Bologna as high as possible. However, these players are the real protagonists of the sport."
He added, I leave my love, my passion, ambition, but above all great respect for these players I had the privilege to work with. I love each of them, I have respect for each of them. This is what I leave at Bologna, wishing all the best for them and all they can achieve in future.
It's not just about the results, but how hard they worked, and I can only thank them."
