Juventus are looking at the prospect of potentially signing Palermo wonderkid Andrea Belotti in the summer.

The 20 year old Italian is currently on loan at the Serie B champions from Albinoleffe, but is expected to be bought outright by Palermo at the commencement of the season.

Il Giornale di Sicilia report that Juventus will try to purchase the rights of the striker from Palermo, but will allow him to remain at the club until the start of the 2015/16 season to gain experience.

Juventus has had success using this method in the past few years with players such as Domenico Berardi, Manolo Gabbiadini and Ciro Immobile proving big hits in the league at other clubs.

Belotti has proved one of the revelations of the Serie B this season, netting 10 goals mainly as an impact player from the bench.
