Sansone remained in the service of Bologna for nearly half a century, practically a life, the young man who in 1931 crossed the ocean to arrive in Italy would certainly not have imagined. Sansone was in action, actually, to Florence, where his partner was waiting Petrone, Artillerie that to play in purple claimed to find their next Faele, the steps Faele. In Bologna, the year before, played Fedullo, fellow Uruguayan department of Samson, Fedullo continued to speak well of Samson, recommending the purchase to management rossoblu. Felsner the coach that year he moved to Florence, taking with him the National Busini Pitt and III, after the companies agreed to transfer to Bologna Sansone, despite Raphael had already signed a contract with Fiorentina, the contract that was respected from Bologna. 25,000 pounds for two years over a month to 2,500 pounds at the time represented a lot of money, if you think that a good employee did not arrive at 500 lire a month. BFC 39-game better known as "System" Sansone formed with his friend Fedullo inside forward duo, immediately behind the attacking trio, formed by Maini (later by Biavati), and Reguzzoni Schiavio. And what a pair. Sansone and Fedullo Together they wrote the most glorious in the history of Bologna, this amazing tandem half-wings (or rather half-points) contributed in a decisive victories that gave rise to the myth of the "Bologna, which makes the world tremble." Two weavers of fine entertainment and great performance to perfection meant that if the purpose of assisting the attackers and in particular Angiolino Schiavio. Sansone played on the left and right Fedullo, contrary to what worked in their national team, famous and unique duets on the right wing, which Sansone and Faele Biavati proposed, with their triangles, geometry and Uruguayan fake Medea. Sansone in action in the upper left side Gasperi; Ceresoli down and enslaved. (Season 36/37) Sansone left Bologna after two seasons, for problems of engagement (refused 32,000 francs for 4 years), returned home to Penarol, except to return a year later in 1934 under pressure from the air that made him of decks 'to convince gold, 50,000 pounds for 2 years and 500 pesos to his company.
