Report: Super agent Mino Raiola asks West Ham United if they want Italy international striker Mario Balotelli

According to AS (via The Sun), Mino Raiola, the agent of free agent Mario Balotelli has contacted West Ham United to enquire whether there is any interest from the East London outfit for the striker. The Italy international is currently without a club after leaving Ligue 1 outfit Marseille at the end of last season, and it is believed he fancies a return to the English top-flight. Balotelli featured for Manchester City and Liverpool before returning to the Serie A, but re-established himself at Nice over the last three seasons, scoring 43 goals in 76 games.
