Didier Drogba's hopes of reuniting with Jose Mourinho have been dashed by Massimo Moratti's revelation that the Nerazzurri will not sign any strikers this summer.
It has also been revealed that the Sweden international will not be operated on, but rested before the new season starts.
"Surgery is out of question for Zlatan," Moratti told La Gazzetta dello Sport. "And I reject that crazy figures have been offered for him.
"He has the intention to stay put to win the Champions League and to be recognised as Europe's best player."
"Balotelli has now a great coach and the chance for him to prove his worth," he added. "Then he will earn what he deserves.
"There are no strikers in Mourinho's wish-list."
