Agent Balotelli: We will know Genoa’s decision after their match with Bologna

The forward’s transfer depends on the situation with head coach Alberto Gilardino

Enzo Raiolaagent of the Italian striker Mario Balotellisaid that he was awaiting a decision from Genoa under contract after the Griffins’ match with Bologna.

“We are negotiating with Genoa. President Alberto Zangrillo has appreciated and loved him for many years. We are waiting for Genoa’s final decision. After the game with Bologna we will know their decision.”

Earlier it was reported that the forward and the club had settled all the necessary details, including the player’s salary, which will range from 250 to 300 thousand euros. However, the transition depends on the fate of head coach Alberto Gilardino. The mentor may be fired in the near future due to unsatisfactory team results.

In mid-October, it was reported that both the player himself and the head coach gave mutual approval for mutual cooperation. Gilardino had a telephone conversation with Mario, thanks to which he was convinced of the striker’s motivation and his readiness to help the team. It was about concluding a short-term contract until the end of the current season.

Balotelli seeks to return to Serie A. His services, we recall, were offered to Genoa in early October. It was also reported that Mario is being watched by Torino – the Bulls are looking for a replacement for Duvan Zapata, who is out for the rest of the season due to a meniscus and cruciate ligament injury.

The Italian striker remains without a club after leaving Adana Demirspor. In Italy, the forward last played for Monza in the 2020/21 season.

Genoa, who have been unable to help lately from injured Ukrainian midfielder Ruslan Malinovsky, are 18th in Serie A with five points. Three defeats in a row dropped the Griffins into the relegation zone. Genoa will play their next match with Bologna on October 19.
