Mario Balotelli's agent insists his client is not about to leave Liverpool to return to Italy's Serie A this winter.
There has been plenty of speculation that the Italian striker would depart Anfield in January, only half a season after arriving, to rejoin former club Inter Milan.
However, Mino Raiola has made it clear that Balotelli, who joined the Reds from AC Milan for £16million in the summer, is going nowhere anytime soon.
"Mario will not return to Serie A," said the former Manchester City forward's representative.
"Him (Balotelli) to Inter? It's impossible, not because Mancini has returned but for other reasons that I don't wish to get into."
The rumours involving Balotelli have come after a difficult beginning too life on Merseyside which has seen the 25-year old score just two goals in 14 appearances since returning to England.
