Jamie Carragher doubts Mario Balotelli impact

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher doubts the impact Mario Balotelli may have if he is to sign for the club.

Jamie Carragher has expressed his doubt of the impact that Mario Balotelli could have at Anfield if he is to sign for the Reds this summer.

Liverpool have reportedly agreed a £16m fee with Balotelli to potentially replace Luis Suarez, but Carragher questions the Italian striker's impact.

Carragher told Sky Sports News: "Would he be the final piece of the jigsaw? Would he make the starting XI if everyone was fit and firing? Who knows?

"At the moment Daniel Sturridge has got 36 goals in 50 games for Liverpool and at this moment he is the main man up front."

Balotelli scored 14 goals in 30 Serie A appearances for AC Milan last season.
