Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has told striker Mario Balotelli to find a new club.<\/p>\n
The Italian, 25, spent last season on loan at AC Milan but has now returned to Liverpool for pre-season training.<\/p>\n
The former Manchester City striker has scored four goals for the Reds sincejoining the club in 2014.<\/p>\n
“He’s not at the stage of his career where he should be battling with four or five players for one or two positions,” said Klopp.<\/p>\n
“So it’s clear we need a solution. There will be a club who would be happy to have the new Mario Balotelli.”<\/p>\n
Balotelli scored just three goals in a 23-game loan spell at the San Siro last season, and was not named in Italy’s Euro 2016 squad.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Klopp says the Reds are eager to resolve the future of Wales midfielder Joe Allen, who has a year left on his deal.<\/p>\n
