Agent: Man City's Balotelli WILL end career in Italy

Mario Balotelli's agent says the striker will stay at Manchester City for now but will certainly end his playing days in Italy.

The 21-year old is being heavily linked with an Etihad Stadium departure this summer but his representative, Mino Raiola, says he won't be leaving England just yet.

"Balotelli will end his career in Italy, but at the moment it's better for him to stay at Manchester City," Raiola told Sky Sport Italia.

"Manchester City don't want to sell him. Mario misses Italy but this still isn't the right moment to go back.

"I'm just here in Manchester now to talk with Mancini about Balotelli. We're not going to talk about the transfer market."
