Genoa president Alberto Zangrillo has refused to guarantee the arrival of Mario Balotelli.
The striker, 34, is a free agent and has been in talks with Genoa about a deal to June.

Earlier this week, Zangrillo was bullish about signing Balotelli, with coach Alberto Gilardino also keen on the deal.
But today, the president said: "It doesn't depend on me, I expressed a romantic dream and if it also responds to a technical indication it's not up to me to say.
"I know as much as you do..."
For his part, Balotelli is eager to see the move happen.
