Torino president Cairo urges Belotti to stay

Torino president Urbano Cairo is urging striker Andrea Belotti to stay.

Belotti has been linked with a big money move abroad.

But Cairo says: "I have not received any requests for Belotti. There are certainly many scouts observing Torino games, and I imagine Belotti, both Italian and foreign.

“I said many times, if Belotti stays for another year, he'll be doing a great thing for himself and for us. Next year he could consolidate his status, score maybe 30 goals and get to the World Cup.

“Andrea is a humble lad who wants to learn, so we've got a great rapport. I think this has been a good campaign, but there are regrets seeing some of the teams ahead of us slowing down now. We could've challenged for Europe, but in any case, we scored 65 goals, launched promising young players and Sinisa Mihajlovic built a good team."
