Most Improved MemberScammaca on loan is a good option. He could be useful in our system. We just need to have inserted some clause to trigger, if he turns to a prime Vieri. Because otherwise Jube will appear from nowhere with some sneaky offer once again.

Both Beto and Scamacca are pretty big risks imo, and I'm not sure they have the upside of Balogun.
Beto - has had two seasons in Serie A scoring 11 and 10 goals in each. For all the complaints of Morata not being a great scorer, Beto is not either. Also it's not as if he's played for a terrible team, Udinese have some decent talents. He's also 25 so not a youngster with big potential. I don't think he's a bad player but more of a 4th option. Udinese also wants 25-30 million for him, so transfer fee isn't that much less than Balogun and more than Morata.
Scamacca - probably bigger upside than Beto, but according to transfermarkt the guy had 4 separate injuries this season (although it seems like it's mostly due to the same knee issue). Regardless, he missed a total of 172 days of football with injury - that's almost 6 months, including having knee surgery. Unless the deal is on a loan+option, big no from me as he would cost almost as much as Balogun. Even if he is available on loan+option, it still needs to be in place of Correa imo. Having Scamacca and Correa together is a huge risk that you don't get much from two of your strikers.
Based on the 4 options being suggested (Balogun, Morata, Beto, Scamacca) as 3rd striker (providing Correa stays), my preference is Balogun, then Morata.

10 years of FIFI prefer none of those guys and keep the money. Unless Scamacca is a loan deal paying 20+ million for any of the other players who probably won't even score 10 next season is insane.

10 years of FIFThat would be the perfect scenario. Having a striker's department of Lautaro, Thuram, Scamacca and Balogun would be insane. So many different characteristics so other teams would have it hard to prepare against us and with Inzaghi all of them would get enough time. There are many things to critize Inzaghi for, but rotation is not one of them.
Has to be his salary demands, otherwise it doesn't make sense that he is still without a club.
