Recall: Balotelli joined Genoa earlier this week as a free agent but won’t be called up for Thursday’s Serie A fixture against Fiorentina. A return to the pitch against the “Violas” is highly unlikely for the striker.

The Italian forward has been without a club since his contract with Adana Demirspor ended in June.
