Mario Balotelli has completd his £16 million move to Liverpool from AC Milan.
The 24 year old Italian striker sealed the three year deal earlier today after agreeing to Liverpool’s terms as regards putting his on-field and off-field behavior in check at all times.
He said: “I’m very happy. We’ve been talking about coming here and now I’m happy to be here. Liverpool are one of the best teams here in England and the football is very good here. It’s a great team with young players, and that’s why I came here.”
Balotelli joins Liverpool after a year-and-a-half with Milan, where he scored 30 goals in 54 appearances.
He has won 33 caps for Italy and scored 13 goals for his country.
Balotelli's controversial character was initially a concern for Livrpool manager, Brendan Rogers.
