Looks like Juve are going to activate N'zonzi's release clause

Very good striker as near as I can tell. Big bloke who's still able to run at defenders. He's having an excellent season for Torino and might drag them all the way to European football. I've seen Gattuso (who apparently found him somewhere in the lower divisions a coulple years back) compare him to Shevchenko, and I suppose he would know.

He's at that age where he needs to play though. I don't think he'd get game time here with our current options. He's too good to have on the bench but he's not going to displace Alexis (unless he truly is on his way out) or even Giroud. My feeling is that he'll go to Napoli or a similar club and then in a year or two make a big move.

They're after Kolasinac on a free transfer as well. I saw he's also been linked to Liverpool and Man City. 

What do you guys think of him? 

Apparently Torino's sport director claims they have rejected a €65m bid from Arsenal for Belotti.

Houseboat

Taken a look at a few vids on him and it's not obvious why he's valued that highly to me

Sounds like BS.

I actually rate him about Lucas' level. The fee mentioned is abominable. We need to aim a little higher.

Don't thing wonga would bid that much. Houseboat.

Definitely a lie. We would never bid €65mil on someone like that. Torino technical director probably doesnt know who to name drop if he wants to lie about such things. Amateur mistake.

Personally I'm convinced we're scouting him closely. There's no way we've offered that much dough for him though.

From the couple of brief interview snippets I've read, he sounds like he's got a good head on his shoulders too.

most of the players torino have sold haven't really pulled up trees in other european leagues. guys like darmian, immobile, cerci for example

hope this is a sign we are on a general hunt for primo young strikers

Seems we're interested now. 

I doubt we're interested. He's in fantastic form this season but before last summer he was very patchy at best. More importantly he looked so impressive not as a left back but wing back, Schalke under Weinzierl play 3-5-2.
