MARIO BALOTELLI has ruled out a move to Paris Saint-Germain after playing for Ligue 1 rivals Marseille and Nice.<\/p>\n
But the Italian ace was quick to backtrack on himself and said if he was offered \u20ac10million (\u00a38.6million) he would consider moving to the French capital.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ballotelli, 33, has returned to Turkish Super Lig side Adana Demirspor after his season-long spell at the club in 2021-2022.<\/p>\n
He scored 19 goals in 33 games for the then-newly promoted side before joining Swiss\u00a0Super League\u00a0club Sion.<\/p>\n
But a disastrous season at the club meant the Italian star returned to Turkey.<\/p>\n
When asked if the striker would move to French giants PSG he quickly declined the offer in fear of betraying his former teams Marseille and Nice.<\/p>\n
He told TVPlay: "What if PSG call me? No chance. No way \u2014 as I used to play for Marseille and Nice so\u2026 no way."<\/p>\n However, Balotelli instantly changed his mind and suggested if a big enough price tag was offered he would make the move.<\/p>\n He even went as far as to suggest that for the right price, he would play for his brother Enock Barwuah's club – amateur Italian side Rovato Calcio.<\/p>\n He added: "What if they come with \u20ac10m salary proposal?<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n FREE BETS – BEST BETTING OFFERS AND BONUSES NEW CUSTOMERS<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cOf course. In that case I\u2019d accept\u2026 for \u20ac10m I\u2019d even join my brother\u2019s team and go play there!\u201d<\/p>\n Balotelli enjoyed a three-year spell at Nice from 2016-2019 where he made 76 appearances and scored 43 goals.<\/p>\n Then swiftly after his exit he moved across the French Riveria to rivals Marseille for the season.<\/p>\n It was a short but successful spell having scored eight goals in 15 appearances.<\/p>\n<\/picture>POWER UP <\/span><\/p>\n
