In June 2011 Rickler was exchanged with Alessandro Bassoli in co-ownership deal. Both players' 50% registration rights were tagged for €1.5 million. He signed a 5-year contract, which worth €100,000 in net in the first season and would gradually increased to €120,000 in the last 3 seasons, plus bonuses.[2] The deal was criticized as financial trick or even creative accounting, as the aggressive price tag of both players only improved 2010–11 financial result (selling profit nearly €3M)[3] and created an amortization cost of €3 million (€600,000 each for 5 seasons) from 2011 to 2016, with both players performance were impaired with costing the club €600,000.

Moreover, following Rickler was banned for 4 years, Bologna would never recovered the residual contract value €2.4M, thus both club gave up the bought back rights in June 2012. Bologna also write-down the contract value of Rickler for a season for €600,985 in the financial year[4] to make his contract residual value "worth" around €1.8 million in accounting on 1 July 2012 (however followed the ban shortened, the write-down reverted[5]).

However his ban was shorten by Tribunale Nazionale di Arbitrato per lo Sport to 14 months after appeal.
