Liverpool striker Balotelli: I'm happy to make AC Milan return

Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli has spoken for the first time of his return to AC Milan.

Balotelli completed his Milan medical this morning.

Both clubs have yet to announce the deal, which will see the Italy international join Milan on-loan for the 2015/16 campaign.

"I'm happy to have returned," Balotelli said. "I have little to say, just that I'm looking forward to train and prove my worth.

"I'm physically well - I just have to train with the squad. I have a lot of motivation but I just have to work and not speak.

"Did I think I would return to Milan? Yes, I always had Milan in my heart and I always had hope that I would return one day.

"Will I end my career here? I just have to start to work and have a good year, just have to work and that's that."
