Image for Barcelona emerge as favourites for Belotti

Andrea Belotti looks like snubbing three Premier League offers to move to Barcelona.

According to a report in The Sun the Torino striker has opened secret talks with the Spanish giants despite being linked with with Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester City.

Belotti has been in stunning form for Torino averaging close to a goal a game despite his team languishing in mid-table.

Torino got the striker onto a new long term contract in January but that looks like a move to ensure that they get maximum value for the striker.

A €100m buy out clause was inserted into that contract but that is unlikely to deter the clubs watching Belotti.

It has been claimed that officials from Torino have opened talks with Barcelona who are looking to prepare for life beyond Messi, Suarez and Neymar.

This season the former Palermo striker has scored 22 goals in 23 appearances.
