Mario Balotelli is back in Liverpool and on the brink of completing his £16m transfer to the Reds from AC Milan.
The 24-year-old Italian landed at John Lennon Airport today, dressed in a back tracksuit and bright red trainers, and was ferried away in a car to Liverpool's Melwood training base.
There, he was put through a one-to-one training session with Ryland Morgans, the club's head of conditioning and fitness.
He is expected to pen a three-year deal later today, though his registration with the Premier League cannot be filed until Tuesday due to it being a bank holiday today.
