One of the more troubled players heading into the international break was Andrea Belotti.
Roma’s summer signing and Tammy Abraham’s back-up failed to make a positive impressions on the team, only scoring two goals in the Europa League and continuing his scoring drought in Serie A.
The Italian striker came to the capital relatively late in the summer window and was forced to spend more time on recovering his physical condition following two entire months of free agency.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Belotti knows that Mourinho counts on him and more importantly, that his one-year contract will not be extended unless he puts in a better shift in the coming weeks, fulfilling the performance-related criteria for the renewal to take effect.
