Former Manchester City and Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli could be plying his trade in the Spanish third tier next season, with a swift exit from current side Genoa brewing.

Balotelli has had a journeyman career since the early heights and could be about to drop down two divisions to find his 13th club.

The club have played 18 La Liga campaigns and hold the record for the most second-division titles with eight.

Murcia would be his 13th club after Lumezzane, Inter Milan, Manchester City, AC Milan, Liverpool, Nice, Marseille, Brescia, Monza, Sion, Adana Demirspor and Genoa.

Vieira froze Balotelli out, prompting a not-so-cryptic message on social media from the Italian striker.
