Mario Balotelli has told Brendan Rodgers he would like to remain at Liverpool.
Juventus is the latest Italian club to be linked to Balotelli, who hasn't made a strong impact since joining Liverpool.
“He does want to stay, I think that is the case with him,” Rodgers said. “He does care about doing well for Liverpool and wants to do well but it just hasn’t gone as he would have wanted. This is a club where you will get every opportunity to shine. This is a group that is very close-knit, the spirit is strong and you can work your way into that by working hard and you will get your rewards. We’ve seen that over the last two and a half years with other players.”
