Italy striker Mario
Balotelli has joined Liverpool from AC Milan on a "long-term" deal,
the Premier League club said on Monday.
The 24-year-old is the big signing Liverpool fans have craved
since selling last season's top scorer Luis Suarez to Barcelona in July but
Balotelli's famous on and off field antics may not sit well with some at
Anfield. The former Manchester City player returns to England after only a
season and a half at boyhood-club Milan, who are continuing to cut costs to the
dismay of supporters.
"I'm very happy. We've been talking about coming here and
now I'm happy to be here," Balotelli told the club's official website
(www.liverpoolfc.com).
The transfer fee was not disclosed but media reports have
speculated the amount is around 16 million pounds ($26.5 million)
