Lazio president Claudio Lotito has ruled out a possible move for Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli, while confirming that in-form Felipe Anderson will not leave the club.
The Aquile lost first-choice striker Filip Djordjevic for up to three months after fracturing his ankle in the victory over AC Milan on the weekend, and rumours suggested that Lazio would move for Balotelli as a replacement.
Lotito however shot down the rumours, stating that reports that Lazio will move for the ex-Inter and AC Milan striker is just paper talk.
“Balotelli? We do not deal in dreams, only reality,” Lotito told Radio 24.
“Felipe Anderson? He is not on the market. He is a jewel, and we are not willing to let any of our treasures get away.”
