Mario Balotelli might be on the verge of starting a new chapter in his football career. After spending just two months with Genoa, the Italian forward is reportedly contemplating a move that could see him join Liga MX, specifically with Cruz Azul, a prominent club in Mexican football. Rumors about a potential departure have gained momentum, with Cruz Azul emerging as a strong contender to sign the controversial striker. While official confirmation of negotiations between the two parties is still pending, sources close to Balotelli have indicated that discussions are well advanced and might be concluded in the coming days.

Mario Balotelli has caught the attention of Cruz Azul, as reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport. The Mexican club is believed to have presented a financially lucrative offer to the Italian striker, who joined Genoa a few months ago. It is reported that Balotelli currently earns around four hundred thousand euros annually at Genoa, whereas Cruz Azul is purportedly prepared to offer him five times that amount. Despite Genoa's desire for Balotelli to complete the season in Liguria, his contract permits both parties to terminate the agreement in January. Up until now, Balotelli has only appeared as a substitute for Genoa, with Andrea Pinamonti being the primary striker.

Mario Balotelli, who became a part of Genoa at the end of October as a free agent, has yet to find the opportunity he was seeking, having played only 56 minutes across 6 matches. With the departure of Alberto Gilardino and the appointment of Patrick Vieira as head coach, his prospects have further declined. An unexpected transfer offer emerged from Mexico's Cruz Azul, who proposed 2 million Euros to Balotelli, exceeding his current contract with Genoa by 400,000 Euros, which is valid until June. It is anticipated that Balotelli will make his decision by Tuesday, December 31.

Mario Balotelli, who made a return to Serie A by joining Genoa as a free agent in late October, is said to be unhappy with his position in the team. He has participated in only six matches, managing to accumulate a mere 62 minutes of playtime and receiving two yellow cards. La Gazzetta dello Sport reported that his contract includes a clause permitting either Genoa or Balotelli to terminate it at any moment. It seems that Balotelli might consider utilizing this option to accept a proposal from the Mexican club Cruz Azul, which reportedly offers him an annual salary of two million euros.
