AC Milan star reveals Italian’s dream in football
Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli wants to play for Real Madrid, according to AC Milan star Diego Lopez.
The controversial Italian figure is currently spending a season-long loan at the San Siro after failing to settle in at Anfield following his £16million move there last summer.
Balotelli wasn’t a hit in Merseyside and Brendan Rodgers chose to loan him back to his former-club for the season, sparking speculation that his short-career at the club was already over.
However, with a new manager in place at Anfield, Balotelli could have a second chance come next season, but according to Lopez, the striker is dreaming of a move to Real Madrid.
Spanish Dream
“Mario isn’t like people paint him out to be,” Italian publication GazzettaWorld quote Lopez saying.
“He is a nice guy and a good player and you know what? His dream is to play for Real Madrid.”
It’s not yet understood what plans Jurgen Klopp has for Balotelli, but it’s believed the Italian will be leaving the club on a permanent basis at the end of the season.
