Andrea Belotti will be playing his last game with the Torino shirt against Benevento, writes Calciomercato.com. The player wants to raise the standards and move to a stronger team.
Torino's president, Urbano Cairo, will meet the player but he already figured out that the attacker will not want to renew his contract, which expires in 2022.
One of the teams that are tempted by the Italian international is AS Roma. The newly appointed coach who will start his job once the season starts, is a fan of the central forward and even wanted him during last summer for his former club Tottenham.
In fact, Roma even wanted him last year and proposed a loan with a buy-option. The offer was worth 50 million euros. However, president Cairo rejected the idea.
Now the scenario has completely changed, Roma's director Tiago Pinto knows that he can convince Torino with an offer of 30 million euros, perhaps by including some young players who could be suitable for the Turin-based club. A contract worth 3.5 million per season is ready.
As for AC Milan, Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara are fans of the goal scorer. However, the Rossoneri are in the background and have not started any negotiations with Torino.
Andrea Belotti remains an option for the Rossoneri club but not the main one due to the important costs that a possible operation would require. That is why, at Casa Milan, the management thinks of bringing Olivier Giroud from Chelsea, confirms the source mentioned earlier.
