Liverpool will bid £19.5million to land Torino striker Andrea Belotti, according to Calciomercatoweb. In what they say is exclusive information, they say the Reds are keen to land the 22 year old before Premier League rivals Arsenal make a move for him.

The Italian has had an excellent start to the season in Serie A with five goals in five league games, almost half the twelve goals he scored in the whole of last season.

His excellent form has also led to a call up to Italy’s national squad, making his first appearance against France in a 3-1 friendly defeat last month, and scoring on his first start for his country in a 3-2 win over Macedonia last week.

He is a target man striker so whether Jurgen Klopp is actually looking for a different option up front in January, we will need to wait and see. Considering he sold Christian Benteke, a move for a striker like Belotti is probably unlikely, although he is a quite mobile player, and has some traits similar to Klopp favourite Robert Lewandowski.
