Arsenal and Roma-linked striker Andrea Belotti have a very large contract renewal offer on the table in Torino, their club president, Urbano Cairo, revealed.
When Andrea comes back then they will talk
Andrea Belotti has spent the last six years of his career in Torino, but his current deal is due to expire in 2022 and a number of top clubs across Europe are believed to be interested in listing him in their books. Emirates Stadium has been discussed as a possible next destination for the 27-year-old. Roma sees him as a possible long-term replacement for Edin Dzeko, who is being persuaded to leave Stadio Olimpico this summer.
President Torino says the club plans to sit down with Andrea Belotti to negotiate his future when he returns from vacation after winning Euro 2020 with Italy. Cairo claims the Turin-based outfit has already offered lucrative terms for the asset renewal, but hinted that they might be forced to sell if it refuses to sign a new deal.
The head of Turin said that when Andrea returns, then they will talk to him. they have already made him an offer, which is very large for their financial capabilities. After that, if Belotti doesn’t accept the offer, they will appreciate other things. the head of Turin does not like to negotiate through the newspapers, but says that they have made an important offer. They will see what happens, they have a month to close the deal or do something else.
Where will Andrea Belotti play in the future
It was reported that Torino wants to tie Andrea Belotti until 2026 in a £ 3.4 million a year deal, but it remains unclear if he will be willing to take on a long-term stint at The Stadio Olimpico Grande. Roma’s new boss Mourinho has identified international Italy as a priority target upon arrival in the capital, but they currently lack funds for transfers.
The Giallorossi can only afford to offer € 20 million for Andrea Belotti, and it is understood that Torino will demand at least € 10 million more if he decides against extending his stay in Turin. Arsenal, meanwhile, have yet to make a formal approach, but the head coach of Arteta is considered to be in the market for the experienced new No.9 and Andrea Belotti comes close to scoring 105 goals in 228 games for Torino in all competitions to date.
