Man City's Balotelli key to Tevez getting Inter Milan move

Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli may be key to Carlos Tevez joining Inter Milan.

The Blues signed Balotelli from Inter in 2010 for £26m, but still owe around £5m as part of the deal, says the Daily Star.

Inter have seen an initial £21m bid for Tevez rejected, with City holding out for closer to £26m for the Argentine hitman.

They are now considering the option of waiving the outstanding amount in return for £21m from Inter for the former Manchester United star.
