Tottenham Hotspur reportedly desired to take Andrea Belotti on loan with an option to buy a total of €50 m, but Torino declined.
The offer has been turned down because the Granata will only let their hitman go for a permanent move, according to transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio from Sky Sport Italia.
If it was a loan with a purchasing commitment, then it might well be considered.
Italy’s 26-year-old international deal lasts until June 2022 and has a €100 m release clause in its contract that is only available for clubs outside Italy.
Il Gallo has scored 92 goals, and provided 19 assists, and played for Toro 192 competitive games.
In 28 Italy Senior caps, he already has nine goals and is challenging European Golden Shoe winner Ciro Immobile for the Euro 2020 starting spot.
