Leaving Torino May Help Belotti Prevent Premature Decline

Andrea Belotti is still the captain of Torino but the Gallo turned down a possible extension to his contract, which is set to expire at the end of this season. This means that his experience in Turin, now more than ever, might be close to an end. Perhaps this is just what Belotti needs to revamp a career that never quite seemed to live up to the expectations.

This league campaign, in particular, has not been the most fortunate one for the Granata‘s captain. Belotti was out for many weeks due to an injury but, even earlier than that, his performances were anything but impressive as he recorded just two goals and one assist in ten games.

Despite the absence of his captain, Torino boss Ivan Jurić found players suitable for his tactical setup and significantly improved the defensive phase of the team, which had been quite a problem for the Toro in the last few years. Furthermore, the January window brought new forces on the front line that could potentially step into Belotti’s shoes in the long run. It would seem that the Granata are preparing to part ways with their talismanic striker.

Many teams have been keeping tabs on the Gallo, hoping that he would get better and get back to being a crucial player like he was few years ago. It remains to be seen where Belotti will play next season, but a new perspective and environment may help the Azzurri backup striker find his best condition and prevent a premature decline.
