A move to France could be on for Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli.

While he is a confirmed target for Serie APalermo, Balotelli's agent Mino Raiola is in talks with French clubs about a move this week.

Nice-Matin says Raiola met with Nice president Jean-Pierre Rivère on Friday to discuss terms.

And Rivere is so upbeat over a deal that he's scheduled his private jet to fly to Liverpool over the next 48 hours to help close the transfer.

Raiola, meanwhile, also made contact with Bordeaux on the weekend to offer them Balotelli. For the moment, the Girondins are yet to respond.
