Mario Balotelli Linked with Sampdoria Exit as Liverpool Eyes Argentine Duo
Mario Balotelli’s time at Liverpool may be coming to an early end. Having arrived at Anfield in the summer of 2014, the Italian striker has struggled to impress, and now Sampdoria are reportedly keen to bring him back to Serie A, according to the Daily Mail.
Balotelli’s underwhelming performances and lack of goals have raised concerns at Liverpool, prompting the club to consider offloading him during the January transfer window.
His potential departure could pave the way for Liverpool to strengthen their squad, with the club reportedly interested in:
-
Sergio Romero – the Argentine goalkeeper currently at Sampdoria, as a possible addition to bolster depth between the posts.
-
Gonzalo Higuaín – Napoli’s prolific striker, who has been frequently linked with a move to the Premier League.
While a deal for Higuaín would be ambitious and costly, selling Balotelli could free up both space and funds for Liverpool to make a significant move in the market.
