West Ham United are again being linked with Andrea Belotti.
According to Calciomercato, West Ham United remain in the race to sign Torino striker Andrea Belotti after failing with a January bid.
The Hammers are expected to be in the market for new strikers this summer, with question marks over the futures of Marko Arnautovic, Javier Hernandez, Lucas Perez and Andy Carroll.
Manuel Pellegrini and co will be casting their net far and wide in search of attacking reinforcements, and one name linked in January was Torino ace Belotti.
CuoreToro reported that West Ham were offering €50million (£45million) for Belotti, but no deal materialised as Torino stood firm to keep their star striker.
Now though, Calciomercato claim that West Ham haven’t been deterred, and remain in the race for Belotti’s signature despite failing to sign him in January.
Roma are also thought to be keen, with West Ham seemingly in a battle with the Serie A giants ahead of the summer transfer window.
Belotti, 25, made headlines with 28 goals in the 2016-17 season, but hasn’t continued that form, scoring 13 times last season and 12 goals this term.
The Italian’s streaky form means £45million may be a bit rich, and West Ham should think carefully before heading back in with big money for the former Palermo man.
