The 2000-01 campaign saw Bologna, known as the Rossoblu, secure a respectable mid-table finish, ending their Serie A season in 10th place. Leading the charge was the legendary veteran striker Giuseppe Signori, whose 16 goals were a crucial contribution in a season built on the attacking prowess of the club's talisman. It was a stable year that cemented Bologna's position in the top flight and remains a highlight of Signori's storied tenure with the team.
