Massimiliano Allegri rules out Mario Balotelli arrival

AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri has ruled out any possibility of him signing Mario Balotelli this summer.

Milan had been touted as one possible destination for the 21-year-old, should Manchester City opt to make him available for transfer.

However, Allegri has insisted that he will not be competing for the former Inter Milan player's signature any time soon.

"Mario will not come to Milan," he told Chi magazine. "I hope that he matures. A player's career is short.

"He must not regret the mistakes he has made."

Balotelli has also been linked with Napoli in recent weeks.
