During Fabio Paratici’s tenure at Juventus, the Serie A club was known for landing quality players in the free transfer market. Last summer, Tottenham Hotspur’s Managing Director of Football didn’t use this avenue but could change in the coming months.
According to the Tuttosport (via Sport Witness), Paratici and Spurs are looking to bring another striker to help with the goal-scoring responsibilities. The target that the north London club has in mind is Torino FC’s Andrea Belotti.
Over the last couple of years, Tottenham has tried to find the striker that can take some of the responsibilities off Kane’s shoulders. Vincent Janssen, Fernando Llorente, and Carlos Vinicius were some of the players tasked with helping the England international but didn’t meet expectations.
Belotti is a player that manager Antonio Conte has seen during his time in Serie A. For a backup striker, getting him on a free transfer is an economic bonus considering his experience.
Belotti has made 244 appearances for Torino, scoring 109 goals for the Italian club.
