Sky Italia isn't even reporting it, but still...would love to see Belotti in Blue. Very strong striker. Would be great in the Premier League. Has really impressed me as a Serie A follower.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Batshuayi hasn't even gone anywhere and reports of Dembele and this guy? Nah not for me, just press talk. Tautvix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's too big 625 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Fabrizio Romano (reliable journo, works closely with Di Marzio) has reported 100% that Belotti won't be leaving Torino, at least not in this window. Wouldn't make sense anyway considering we already have Batman and Costa, and Pedro who can play the striker role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belotti in the summer would be good if he can continue this form he has in Serie A. Dembele doesn't want to leave Celtic. Both Dembele and Belotti were just lazy press bullshit.

It's too big 625 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 We won't be paying 89 million for Belotti ffs. He's not anywhere close to an elite player yet. If we were paying that sort of money it would be for a world class player, not a prospect who isn't prolific Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akgw13 867 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Would love Belotti here, I have expressed that many times. This feels like lazy click bait, possibility in the summer if Diego leaves. Can't wait for the window to be closed so we can focus fully on the title BoyBlue96 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 He looks more and more like an ideal striker for Conte. I can see us going for him in the summer regardless if Diego Costa moves. I'm interested to hear opinion from @OhForAGreavsie about this player's technical quality. nyikolajevics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone made the point recently that Belotti is not yet proven.That's true but it's a question timing. If you wait until a player establishes himself there's a risk that the number of interested clubs will grow and that he might be taken by a team higher up the food chain. There comes a point therefore where you have to back your judgement. My own opinion is that this is a player worth investing a lot of money in. If our club tries to get ahead of the game and beat the rush for Belotti's signature, then I would be 100% behind that decision. I think his technical level is high, far higher than Diego's for example. It is very unlikely that the club would want to part with Diego but if our centre forward chooses to force the issue, then Belotti tops the list of potential replacements as far as I am concerned. Only in the areas of leadership and will to win would I rate Diego more highly than the young Italian. Those qualities are important and should not be dismissed, but I would not let them deter me from pursuing this player. In any case, Belotti may well have those. He certainly has a fire in his belly, and that is usually where those things begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe i was the one that made that point, but don't misunderstand me, we should sign him if we can, what i said is that he is not the best option to immediatly replace Costa if he leaves, the arguably most important player of our team, we should aim for a established WC player like Aubameyang, but i'm all in for Belotti coming along.
