Cagliari coach Fabio Pisacane has moved to cool speculation linking Mario Balotelli with a sensational switch to Sardinia, underlining that his focus remains on the attacking options already within the squad.
Speaking in his pre-match press conference before his side’s trip to Udinese, Pisacane emphasised the depth available in his forward line and the tactical flexibility of his players.
“We have a wide choice in attack,” the Rossoblu coach explained, with quotes via TuttoMercatoWeb.
“I’m also thinking of Luvumbo, who can act as a false nine. It depends on the type of player we want to choose for the specific match.”
The former Inter player acts as fashion model for KidSuper runway show.
Reports had emerged in recent days suggesting Balotelli could be a surprise reinforcement for Cagliari, but Pisacane was quick to deflect when pressed on the topic.
“Balotelli? Ask Angelozzi,” he responded bluntly, referring to the club’s sporting director.
His words suggest the club are more focused on maximising current resources than exploring the possibility of the former Italy striker.
