Mario Balotelli looks set to be on the move again this summer, and his agent has named the club where he will be heading.

Only last month, Spanish radio station COPE, as noted by Mundo Deportivo, reported that La Liga side Las Palmas were interested in signing the Italian and had already made moves to secure his services.

However, recently the 26-year old's agent, Mino Raiola, has been talking about his client's future, and named the two clubs that are keen on signing Balotelli - with Las Palmas not one of them.

Speaking to Corriere Dello Sport, he said:

"Balotelli trusts me. I am picky and he knows it. Will he remain at Nice? We will see. He is wanted by Borussia Dortmund and Marseille.

"His performances at Nice have been positive, though Mario has to give much more because he doesn't have many more chances."

Now, though, Raiola has gone one step further by stating that Balotelli will sign for Borussia Dortmund this summer.

That'd be an interesting move, wouldn't it?

Dortmund, sacked manager Thomas Tuchel last week and have moved swiftly in replacing him with Ajax boss Peter Bosz, who assembled a side brimming with youth and freshness to the Europa League final in Stockholm, where they lost out to Manchester United.

Balotelli enjoyed his most fruitful campaign last term under Lucien Favre at Nice, playing a starring role as the side finished third in Ligue One and qualified for next season's Champions League.

Of course, the former Manchester City striker couldn't completely control his discipline as he collected 10 yellow cards and three red cards, but he did notch 17 goals in all competitions last season, with his 15 league goals giving him the highest tally he has ever recorded in a single league season.

Do you think Balotelli is on his way to Dortmund or is his agent just playing around?
