“We need a top striker. Sign him up” – Fans react to apparent bid for Serie A star
|As many news outlets have now reported, Torino’s sporting director has confirmed that they received a substantial bid from Arsenal for their star striker, Andre Belotti.
It has been reported that Arsenal had bid in the region of £56 million for the Italian hotshot which was rejected by Torino. Having signed a new contract with the club, Torino see him as much more valuable than the amount offered. Moreover, the Italian striker does have a €100 million release clause inserted in his new deal.
Many fans were surprised by the vast amount Arsenal had reportedly bid, which if true, would make him the club’s most expensive signing. Here’s what they had to say…

@Arsenal Don't make the same mistake as previous years. We need a top striker. Belotti probably the best chance we got. Sign him up.
