January Transfer Thread 2017

Another day, another Mario Balotelli rumour.

The latest speculation from the Mail surrounding the Nice striker links him to Premier League club Everton.

It would certainly be an audacious move by Toffees boss Ronaldo Koeman to make a move for him, given that Balotelli has only just left arch-rivals Liverpool, where he flopped.

But according to fresh reports, the enigmatic Italian could be offered to Everton for the second time in the space of a year - Everton apparently declined an opportunity to sign him before he eventually left for France.

The former Manchester City striker has actually been in fine form for his new club this season, smashing in nine goals in 13 games - helping his team to the top of Ligue 1 ahead of Monaco and PSG in the process.

Balotelli left England on transfer deadline day in the summer, and signed a one-year deal with the French outfit, meaning that a return to the Premier League might not be too far-fetched.

He would be free to negotiate with other clubs as early as next month, and could arrive for nothing if he chooses not to extend his deal.

Balotelli's agent Mino Raiola added fuel to the fire and said of his client: "Mario is an outstanding talent to have on a free transfer and would be fantastic in the Premier League.


"He has many options and England is one of them but it is not necessarily his priority. We remain open."

Raiola recently refused to rule out a move back the England's top division for Balotelli, perhaps in a bid to prompt Premier League clubs to compete for his signature.

His current form for Nice certainly won't do him any harm if this is the pair's plan, but would any club be willing to take the risk on the controversial striker?

We'd be absolutely mental to get him in, even on a free for a year. Just imagine poor lads like Leighton going into training and Mario turning up with a box of fireworks, a pet alpaca and a trampoline, I love the guy but only when he doesn't play for us.
 

He used to be a bit of a workhorse type destroyer but is more of a footballer these days lol

In Spain every player is required to have a release clause. I wonder what his would be? Spanish clubs tend to slip up with low clauses.

I have yet to see Nzonzi have a bad game fpr Sevilla, and in many he is completely dominant. Would love us to sign him. One of the most consistent and best players in La Liga right now
