At the same time, Giacomo Bassoli and Jacopo Luppi moved to Romagna in the same formula. The deal made the clubs had a financial boost instead of immediate impact on the squad. La Repubblica had criticized Bologna's swap deal with Livorno and Chievo in the same month were exploit to the transfer market to fix the balance sheet.

## Footnotes

* ↑ The all four players signed a 3-year contract, which both K.Caidi and Gregorio had an annual wage of €28,757 each. Among the four players, only K.Caidi had a brief professional experience in 2010–11 Lega Pro Seconda Divisione. However the aggressive price tag made Cesena had a profit of €2M (Gregorio) and €1.5M (K.Caidi) respectively, while Bologna had a profit of €2M and €1.5M for G.Bassoli and J.Luppi, as youth product previously did not have a value as an intangible asset. As it was a pure swap deal, the increase in asset only in form of increase in intangible asset instead of cash (Bologna: Gregorio & K.Caidi; Cesena: G.Bassoli & J.Luppi). In June 2011 both clubs also made swap deal with other clubs, which both clubs eventually had a positive net equity (net asset) in order to register in 2011–12 Serie A without re-capitalization. On 30 June 2011, Cesena had a positive net equity of €502,106, but boosted by new signing of G.Bassoli (€2M), Palumbo (€2M), J.Luppi (€1.5M) and Bonicelli (€1.2M). While Bologna, had a positive net equity of €18,990,427 on 30 June 2011, which the club already received an equity contribution of €21,049,381 but the net equity was also boosted by new signing Pasi (€3.2M), Rickler (€3M), Gregorio (€2M) and K.Caidi (€1.5M). Moreover, half of the transfer fee of Nico Pulzetti (half of €3.3 million) was paid by Riccardo Regno (€1.65M tag). Moreover, as company had to "weather" its intangible asset by amortization, Gregorio and K.Caidi would have made Bologna have an amortization cost of €1,166,666 each seasons from 2011 to 2014 if both players eventually worth nothing. Moreover, both clubs had to pay VAT.
