Minoa Raiola denies Mario Balotelli's career is now over.

The striker has been cut loose by Brescia this summer after one season.

“It had all started well, then there were these misunderstandings with (President Massimo) Cellino," Raiola told Sky Sport Italia.

“I get involved too, I don't hold back. We decided to opt for silence on this matter, as the whole world seems to have an opinion on Mario. That has to be changed with action.

“The COVID situation didn't help on the transfer market, but we are now talking to various clubs to get back on the pitch."

He added: “Of course he's not finished.

“Football needs strikers of Balotelli's calibre like people need water and air. He has offers in Italy too, we are talking to one or two teams."
