Agent Mino Raiola has confirmed that his client Mario Balotelli has held talks with Premier League clubs about a potential return.
The Nice striker spent three seasons at Manchester City and another at Liverpool, enjoying an excellent year during his season season at City, where he scored 13 Premier League goals.
Raiola revealed that a return is possible, and that discussions had already begun about Balotelli's comeback.
“We’ve already had talks with English clubs, but it’s really too early to say," Raiola told talkSPORT. "We want to keep it day-by-day with Mario."
“For Mario I always knew it [his return to form] will come. He was in his last year at Liverpool and he was very stable and not so emotional anymore."
The Italy international was loaned to AC Milan from Liverpool, and then allowed leave for Nice in August after being left out of the Reds' friendly squads by manager Jurgen Klopp.
