Manchester United must pay €100m clause to sign Andrea Belotti - Torino

Manchester United will have to meet Andrea Belotti's buyout clause if they want to sign the striker this summer, Torino president Urbano Cairo has told Gazetta dello Sport.

Belotti, 23, has been linked with a move to Old Trafford as Jose Mourinho searches for a striker to replace the injured Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The Italy international has a clause in his contract, which runs until 2021, that means he would be allowed to leave Torino if a club outside Italy offered €100 million.

Cairo said that would be the only way in which Belotti, who scored 26 goals in Serie A last season, would sign for United this summer.
