Balotelli's agent has revealed that Mario can't wait to move to his new club
Mario Balotelli’s agent, Mino Raiola, has revealed that the forward is eagerly awaiting his move to his new club, Genoa.
Quote: "I’ve been fortunate to know Genoa’s president, Alberto Zangrillo, for a long time, and I know he’s a huge admirer of Mario’s talent.
We’re waiting for a technical decision from Genoa. We know what Mario can bring, and he’s ready. He can’t wait, so we hope we can finalize this partnership quickly. Of course, we understand if we need to wrap things up after Genoa’s game against Bologna," Raiola told Radio Sportiva, as quoted by TMW.
Reminder: According to Gazzetta, Mario Balotelli has reached a verbal agreement with Genoa, with a salary offer ranging from €250,000 to €300,000.
However, the uncertain future of head coach Alberto Gilardino means the deal won’t be completed until after the next Serie A match. The source confirms that Balotelli’s move to Genoa is contingent on Gilardino’s future as the "Griffins" manager.
Balotelli’s most recent club was Turkish side Adana Demirspor. Previously, it was reported that the Italian striker was also in talks with Spanish club Intercity.
