The agent of Mario Balotelli expects the Italian to stay at Manchester City for the next two seasons before considering his future.
Rumours have been rife of a return to Italy ever since the striker moved to England from Inter Milan.
However, Mino Raiola believes that Balotelli is likely to stay at Eastlands until at least 2013.
"I cannot say that Mario will remain at Manchester City for life," Raiola told GR Parlamento.
"Certainly he will stay there this season and the next one, too. Then we will see."
The controversial forward was given a four-match ban earlier today for an alleged stamp on Scott Parker during City's dramatic 3-2 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
