Everything was set for his confirmation at the Rossoblu, so much so that nine days ago he was welcomed at Elmas airport after his medical. However, these very tests prevent Andrea Belotti from continuing his experience at Cagliari. The striker's new contract has fallen through, following consultations in recent days, particularly yesterday in Lyon , with orthopedic surgeon Bertrand Cottet-Sonnery, regarding the condition of the knee he injured last year.

The specialist examination didn't go well, which is why the Rossoblu decided not to re-sign Gallo. He had done everything possible to secure a new deal with Cagliari, but he was forced to give up on the medical consultation and must therefore forgo his second season in Sardinia, where he had also spent the summer holidays (including with some of his now former teammates, like Alessandro Deiola).

Belotti's Cagliari experience thus ended with just eight appearances and two goals, scored in Lecce on September 19th of last year. In the following match, against Inter in his third appearance, he suffered a very unfortunate injury, tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee . He returned on April 11th against Cremonese, for the final minutes, then played another four games for short periods. The one against Torino, as a former player, was his last in the Rossoblu.
