Arriving last summer after a disappointing spell at AS Roma and an anecdotal loan to Fiorentina, the Italian striker, Andrea Belotti (31), could pack up again. Indeed, according to our information, the management of Venice has ticked the name of the former Italian international (44 caps, 12 goals) to strengthen its offensive lines. Currently ranked in 19th position, the Arancioneroverdi, who have scored 18 league goals in this first part of the season, are actively looking for a second experienced scorer capable of supporting Finnish captain and striker Joel Pohjanpalo, author of 5 goals in Serie A , in Eusebio Di Francesco’s 3-5-2.

According to our indiscretions, Gallo Belotti, blocked in the rotation by Patrick Cutrone and handicapped by Cesc Fabregas’ system with a single striker, is not against the idea of ​​finding a situation in which he can be a starter . The Venetian club would like a 6-month dry loan. However, according to our information, the management of Como is hesitant to accelerate negotiations with Venice for two reasons: the probable upcoming departure of another attacker in the person of Alberto Cerri and the idea of ​​discussing or even strengthening a direct competitor in the maintenance. As a reminder, Belotti scored 113 goals in 251 games for Torino.
