Liverpool have opened talks with AC Milan over a
move for striker Mario Balotelli, Sky sources
understand.
Boss Brendan Rodgers is keen to add another
forward to his squad and appears to have turned to
Balotelli after growing frustrated in his pursuit of
Monaco's Colombia striker Radamel Falcao.
Rodgers had previously appeared reticent about
Balotelli's attitude and character and stated a couple
of weeks ago the former Manchester City player was
not one of his targets.
Balotelli's three seasons at City were blighted by
trouble, on and off the field, although he did
manage 30 goals for the club in all competitions.
Milan would prefer a permanent deal for Balotelli.
