Wolves and West Ham set for Balotelli battle

Mario Balotelli could be set for a Premier League return, according to our odds.

The former Manchester City striker had been priced up at just 3/1 to make a move to West Ham United when the transfer window opens.

But the East Londoners face a fight, with Wolverhampton Wanderers emerging as potential contenders for his signature.

They’re just 1/100 to return to the Premier League next season, and having been briefly linked with a move for the Italian in 2016, the Black Country outfit are now just 7/2 to seal a deal in the summer.

Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: “It’s looking increasingly likely Balotelli will return to the Premier League next year, but West Ham won’t have it easy in their quest to sign him, with Wolves now priced as genuine contenders for his signature.”

Balotelli joined Nice in 2016, and helped the side to a third-place finish in Ligue 1 last season.

But while club form has taken a hit this season, the Italian has kept up his own streak by netting 22 goals from just 31 appearances.
