Mario Balotelli will not be sold by Liverpool in the January transfer window and will be given every chance to fight his way back into the team, claims boss Brendan Rodgers. "It's been a difficult period for him but he's a good boy," explained Rodgers.
The £16m former AC Milan forward has started just eight league matches this season and has been linked with a move to Lazio.
But Rodgers added: "I've seen some bits this morning suggesting that's him done here. That's not the case at all.
"I've shown in my time here that if players who have been out the fold for various reasons work hard every day in training, and show intensity and focus, then they have every chance of getting back in the side and staying there."
