After 17 rounds of Serie A, Inter Milan led Juventus by four points. So far, Inter Milan has scored a total of 41 league goals, and their offensive firepower is the highest in Serie A. The two strikers of Lautaro and Junior Toram combined to contribute 22 league goals for Inter. French centre-forward Thuram, who joined Inter Milan on a free fee this year, replaced Romelu Lukaku, who left the team to join Roma, and became Lautaro's best partner in the attack. While Lautaro and Thuram Jr. are in hot form, Inter's two substitute strikers, Alexis Sanchez and Arnautovic, have been in poor form and neither has scored for Inter in the league so far.
Although Inter Milan currently lead the table, China will face a challenge from Atletico Madrid in the knockout rounds of the Champions League. As the schedule progresses, once Lautaro and Thuram Jr. are injured, Inter's attacking firepower will drop significantly. According to Milan Sport, there are several teams interested in Sanchez, including Saudi Arabia's Riyadh Youth and Dammam Collaboration, MLS's Miami International and Los Angeles FC, Mexico's Pachuca and Club America. Sanchez returned to Inter Milan for free this summer, but as he gets older, Sanchez's form is not as good as before, in order to win more playing time to maintain his form, Sanchez is likely to choose to leave the team in the winter transfer window and go to the lower leagues to pan for gold, and Inter can also get a transfer income through Sanchez's transfer to fully prepare for the winter transfer window.
According to the latest news provided by Roma Sport, Roma coach Jose Mourinho has abandoned striker Belotti. Rokaku has been firmly in the starting centre-forward since his arrival at Roma, and with substitute striker Azmoun gaining the trust of Jose Mourinho. England centre-forward Tammy Abraham is also set to return from injury after the winter transfer window, leaving veteran Belotti no longer useful at Roma. If a suitable transfer offer comes to Roma, they will seriously consider sending Belotti away in the winter transfer window. According to the latest data provided by the German transfer market, Belotti is currently valued at €8 million. So far this season, Belotti has scored five goals and provided two assists in 15 appearances for Roma in all competitions, but has played less than 50 per cent of his time. Statistically, the Italian striker remains Roma's most efficient goalscorer.
Personally, I think if Sanchez leaves Inter in the winter transfer window. Inter general manager Marotta could well consider bringing Belotti from Roma to Inter Milan to ensure that the forward rotation is not affected. The veteran Italian has many years of experience in Serie A, and has a good understanding of the opponents and the playing environment in Serie A, so he can achieve plug-and-play results. And Belotti himself is also eager to join Inter Milan and fight against his old club Roma in Serie A to attack the Serie A title.
