Balotelli's Marseille future to be decided at the end of the season

The Ligue 1 outfit will choose whether or not they will extend the striker's deal in the summer after an impressive start to his time at the club

Marseille president Jacques-Henri Eyraud says the club will decide on the future of Mario Balotelli in the summer.

The Italian striker, 28, has impressed since joining Marseille from Nice, scoring five times in just eight appearances, and made headlines for streaming his live reaction to scoring a goal on social media.

He was brought to Marseille on a six-month deal after a public falling-out with Nice manager Patrick Vieira saw him left out of the squad entirely for five games before his departure.
