The 24 year old has been a big disappointment since moving to Anfield last summer and is unsurprisingly therefore the subject of strong exit speculation.
Balotelli has failed to net in a dozen Premier League appearances this term and hasn’t started a top tier fixture since early November.
Liverpool paid AC Milan £16m for Balotelli and would surely demand a similar fee for the former Man City man though one wonders just how likely any side is to make such an offer.
Lazio are suffering with injuries to many of their striking options at present and veteran German Mirolsav Klose is the Stadio Olimpico side’s only fit forward.
Midfielder Lucas Biglia has publicly spoken of his desire to line-up alongside Balotelli, fueling speculation of a possible move to the Italian capital.
“We’d be delighted to play with [Mario],” said Lucas Biglia.
“If he comes he would be very welcome.”
