United Arab Emirates side Palm City are reportedly eyeing a sensational move for Italian striker of Ghanaian descent, Mario Balotelli.
The 35-year-old forward is currently a free agent after parting ways with Serie A outfit Genoa, where he endured a frustrating spell featuring just six times last season without a goal or assist.
Palm City, who compete in the UAE second division, are eager to add Balotelli’s experience and star power to their squad. Reports suggest the former Manchester City and Liverpool star has already rejected offers from Major League Soccer and Saudi Arabia, making a switch to the UAE a real possibility.
Balotelli remains one of football’s most captivating figures a player known as much for his brilliance as for his controversies. Over a colourful career, he has represented elite clubs including Inter Milan, AC Milan, Manchester City, Liverpool, Marseille, and Nice.
Should the deal materialise, it would mark a new chapter for Balotelli in a league fast becoming a destination for global stars seeking both a fresh challenge and a lucrative contract.
