Sampdoria want to sign Balotelli

Unione Calcio Sampdoria are thinking of signing Balotelli. The 25-year-old, who was on loan at AC Milan and didn't do well, returned to Liverpool for pre-season. Sampdoria want to give the young Italian the chance to be one of the best again and forget his struggels. The Italian club keen to sign the young man, who already inspired the Serie A.

"He could relaunch his career at a passionate club like ours, but he's still a bit confused. I've tried to tell him to come to Samp because he's a great talent."
