Arsenal Football Club have been linked with a summer swoop for Mario Balotelli.

The Italian striker faces an uncertain future at Internazionale, which was again demonstrated when he was left out of their UEFA Champions League squad for the trip to Chelsea.

It is being suggested that the youngster had yet another bust-up with Jose Mourinho, and this is expected to further add to the likelihood of his departure.

His former Nerazzurri coach, Roberto Mancini, has made it perfectly clear he wants him at Manchester City, and a bid looks inevitable when the window reopens.

However, Arsene Wenger has in the past expressed his admiration for Balotelli, and reports in Italy claim the Gunners boss is also considering making an offer.
