AC Milan reveal 'passion' to link Mario Balotelli with Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Passion: AC Milan may soon ask City a question about Balotelli
The 21-year-old striker banged his fifth and sixth goal of the season in the 6-1 mauling of Manchester United at the weekend, and his scoring exploits have not gone unnoticed back in his homeland.
Milan chief executive Adriano Galliani has admitted he has a ‘passion’ for the explosive hitman, and suggested the ex-Inter forward could form a formidable partnership for the Rossoneri with Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
‘Balotelli is my passion, he's a great player,’ Galliani told Sky Italia.
‘Take him to Milan? Who knows, for now it remains a passion.’
‘Ibrahimovic? He's fine and will remain until the end of his contract. Ibra and Balotelli will compensate each other, they would be good together.’
Balotelli is a self-confessed AC Milan fan, and has never hidden his desire to one day play for the Italian giants.
However, his rich vein of form, coupled with the fact he’s recently admitted he’s started to settle in the Manchester area, means it could be some time before Galliani gets a chance to land his man.
