Mario Balotelli has ruled out a return to Internazionale this summer.

The 21-year-old left the San Siro for Manchester City in the summer of 2010, and he has since gone on to help the Blues win the FA Cup and the Premier League.

Balotelli has been a controversial figure both on and off the pitch during his time in England, though, and he has been linked with a return to his former club.

However, the striker, who has been included in the Italy squad for Euro 2012, has no intention of returning to his homeland anytime soon.

"I love Italy but I will stay at Manchester City," said Balotelli, who scored 13 league goals this season. "The Premier League is the highest level for a player, and is a league I enjoy."
