Belotti fails medical with Cagliari, remains a free agent

Summary

Andrea Belotti has failed a medical exam with Cagliari, where he was expected to sign as a free agent. The former Roma and Torino striker had joined Cagliari in September 2025 but faced a series of setbacks, including a serious knee injury. Although he returned to play a few matches in April 2026, the medical issue has prevented him from finalizing his stay with the club. Cagliari had previously shown readiness to welcome him back following a successful prior stint, where he scored two goals in eight Serie A games. Details regarding his future remain unclear as of now.
