Mario Balotelli has contract 'TERMINATED' by Swiss side FC Sion after being forced to train alone this summer with Italian now linked with a surprise return to a former club

Mario Balotelli has reportedly had his contract terminated at Swiss club Sion after just one season - and now he is linked with a former club.

The former Manchester City and Liverpool striker was training alone at the start of this season after Sion were relegated.

He scored six goals in 19 games last season but now the Italian has had his contracted terminated by mutual consent.

Christian Constantin, president of Sion, said: 'Everything was resolved in a very courteous way with Mario. The document we have prepared is now in the hands of our lawyers who will have to formalize it.
