I'm a Mario fan! Brendan Rodgers confirms Liverpool want Balotelli
BRENDAN RODGERS has revealed Liverpool are interested in signing AC Milan striker Mario Balotelli, who was previously a target for Arsenal.
The Reds are still looking to beef up their frontline after a move for Loic Remy broke down.
Balotelli, who is believed to be up for sale, is the sort of player that excites Rodgers.
"Balotelli has all the qualities [I like]," Rodgers said.
"He’s 6’3”, he’s quick, his touch is terrific, he can score goals and he’s still so young.
