Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti admits he wanted to sign Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli for PSG.
Ancelotti is a big fan of Balotelli and insists he will eventually deliver on his undoubted potential.
"He has to find a place to feel at ease," Ancelotti told La Republicca.
"Sooner or later he will succeed, but it depends on him - heaven helps those who help themselves.
"Would I sign him? I was trying to at Paris Saint-Germain. He was coming off the back of an impressive European Championship.
"Then the opportunity for Ibrahimovic presented itself and we went more on the safe side."
