Belotti has scored 13 league goals for Torino so far this season with Mauro Icardi of Inter Milan on 14 goals the only one to have scored more this season.

"Yes, we received the offer, but it does not reflect the value of the player," Petrachi replied when asked about Arsenal's interest by Sky Italia.

"Anyway, he is going nowhere for now. We want to enjoy him, then we'll see what happens.
