Could Wolverhampton Wanderers really bring Mario Balotelli to Molineux?
Rumours have been circulating recently regarding Mario Balotelli’s future, with Wolves being mentioned as a surprise destination for the Italian.
The 27-year-old has endured well-documented problems during his time in the game, but his quality remains unquestionable, and the enigmatic striker could very well turn out to be an exceptional signing for the Black Country outfit.
Balotelli has impressed in France, since joining Nice on a free transfer back in the summer of 2016, and has scored 39 goals in 59 appearances thus far.
There have also been signs that the former Manchester City and Liverpool hitman is maturing as a footballer, as well as a human being.
The 33-capped Italy international possesses pace in abundance, and he is a lethal finisher when presented with a goalscoring opportunity.
He is also incredibly strong, and possesses all of the physical attributes required to be a success in the English game.
Because of his checkered past, signing Balotelli represents an obvious risk, but his availability on a free transfer makes it one surely worth taking for Wolves.
The 27-year-old could turn out to be a real cult hero at Molineux, and Nuno Espirito Santo should seriously consider bringing him into the club this summer.
