Andrea Belotti - Another average season Belotti scored 13 goals and provided six assists in 35 appearances during the 2020/21 season.
Impact Belotti hasn't scored more than 16 goals since the 2016/17 season and his tally from the most recent campaign saw him rank fourth among Italians in goals scored. Since the three above him were all called up, Belotti's minutes at the Euros are more likely to be determined by the experience required in a situation instead of his place in the lineup, where Ciro Immobile is expected to be the first-choice. By still sitting sixth in Serie A in shots taken, Belotti should continue to offer good fantasy value even if he doesn't lead the league in scoring.
