West Ham United are showing interest in Torino striker Andrea Belotti as they intensify their efforts to replace Marko Arnautovic.
The Premier League side are expected to sell Arnautovic to a club in the Chinese Super League, with the Austrian attacker keen to move on.
Arnautovic may not be involved against Bournemouth on Saturday and West Ham are aware that limited time remains in this month's transfer window to replace him.
They are assessing a number of options and, according to Torino-focused Italian outlet cuoretoro.it, Torino's Belotti is one.
It remains to be seen how far West Ham's interest in Belotti has gone, but it is suggested thast the Hammers could offer around €50m to take him to the London Stadium.
But it is far from clear whether Torino would be willing to let a key man leave midway through the season.
Belotti caught the eye with his superb performances at Torino in the 2016/17 campaign when he netted 26 goals in Serie A.
He was linked with a number of top clubs, but stayed at Torino and scored just ten times in Serie A last term.
This season he has seven goals in 19 top flight games to his name.
