Milan Inquire About The Possibility Of Signing Torino Striker

Torino striker Andrea Belotti is a man wanted by many clubs and has been attracting a lot of interest from a host of clubs since last summer. Although he is still contracted at Torino, he may well likely seal a move away from the club this summer.

One of the many clubs to have signaled an interest in signing the Italian striker is AC Milan. According to Italian news media outlet Tuttomercatoweb, Milan are in the market for a proven striker and will do all they can to get their hands on one this summer. The long-term availability of the club’s veteran striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic is of course, in huge doubt and they will need to sign a striker that is much younger and well equipped with the ability to lead the team’s attack.
