Mancini and Gandini all but confirm Balotelli's move from Man City to Milan

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini and AC Milan director Umberto Gandini have both suggested that Mario Balotelli's transfer will be complete on Wednesday.

The 22-year old striker has been heavily linked with a return to Italy's Serie A with reports indicating that he will soon sign with the Rossoneri.

Following Tuesday night's 0-0 draw with QPR at Loftus Road, Mancini stated that Balotelli was to have a medical with Milan.

"Both clubs are talking about him," Mancini told Sky Sports. "I think maybe tomorrow they conclude. I think that Mario is due for a medical.

"We are very sorry because we love Mario. But I think that he had this big chance to go back to Italy and to play for another top club like Milan."

Whilst Gandini posted the following on Twitter: "Transfer agreement for Balotelli signed with Manchester City.

"Medicals tomorrow in Milan, then personal terms until 2017 signing."
