he's not on their level technically, doesn't have the greatest shooting technique, the softest first touch or the experience, but he makes up for it with sheer hunger and aggressivity, he didn't outscore Higuain and Icardi (both valued over 50m) while playing for Torino by being a mediocre 25m player.
Suarez can create shit on his own, but it's not his task anymore, Neymar and Messi now create space out of nothing, he's pretty much a typical #9, any of the guys I mentioned could do the role at Barca and wouldn't look out of place. of course, not many of them have the balls of Suarez
Suarez has the speed and way better ball control which gives him the upper hand of playing there. But Barca is different and pointless to take them into account. They'd never even consider Belotti for their team. I'm not saying that to bitch about the Italian but they are just totally different when they buy players.

Higuain costed 96m
Lukaku costs like 90m
Kane costs like 100m
An 18 year old (Mbappe) is quoted at like 120m
Icardi just recently was said to be 110m by the media
A player with 0 minutes in professional football (Vinicius Jr.) costed some 45m
Belotti for 50m would be absurd. Which is why that is not what he costs and clubs offer more, and Torino holds for more.
Higuain proved he can score for Real, one of the best teams in the world, in both La Liga and CL to a lesser extent. Argentina too. His goal-scoring record was and still is crazy, while he was also one of the best strikers in Serie A for years. His price was a lot higher simply because we sold Pogba and needed a striker so they could milk us.
Kane is a great player.
Mbappe will most likely become of the best players in the world and he's actually worth the money cause he's no gamble. He's simply a beast that rarely comes in the football world.
Icardi kept proving his goal-score record and he's quite deadly in the box. He's ONE YEAR older than Belotti while he scored over 70 goals for Inter. With a good SS it'd be a terror upfront and a scary duo to stop. Luckly it's just a fucking Inter.
Vinicius Jr... I have no words to add. Weirdest thing ever.
Belotti hasn't proved shit to be worth more than 50mln worth, let alone close to a 100. Also, he won't be improving much simply because he's extremely limited player. Mbappe will keep improving and get better in MANY areas while Belotti might get a better finishing. He also has to hope not to get a couple of extra pounds cause he'd lose 30% of his playstyle due to being too slow.
