Rodgers rules out Mario move

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers insists he will not be signing Mario Balotelli this summer.

Rodgers showered praise on Balotelli last week, which led to speculation he could sign the AC Milan front man.

The Liverpool boss has already signed Lille striker Divock Origi and England’s Rickie Lambert to help plug the gap left by Luis Suarez’s departure, but he could still make a move for another striker.
