Should Arsenal Target Balotelli?

Should Arsenal Target Balotelli?

The Italian, Mario Balotelli spent two-and-a-half controversial seasons with the current Premier League champions Manchester City before going back to Italy with AC Milan in January 2013. However, he did prove his mettle in England by scoring 26 league goals in just 43 matches helping the Citizens to their first league title in 44 years in 2011-12.

The 23-year-old was not a fan of the English life and decided to go back to his roots in Italy. However, he is fed up of tolerating the racism in his home country and would be willing to move back to England, according to the Daily Mail.


Balotelli has already proved a success in the Premier League and there will be many clubs vying for his signature in case he decides to move back.

2014 FA Cup winners Arsenal are scouring Europe for a new striker and are strongly linked with a move for Real Madrid forward Karim Benzema. But, they will also be talking to Balotelli’s representatives as they seek more options in attack up front.
