Flamengo president Rodolfo Landim says the club has held talks with Mario Balotelli following the expiration of the forward's contract with Marseille.
Balotelli's contract with the Ligue 1 side expired this summer after originally joining in January on a half-year deal following the termination of his deal with Nice.
He went on to score eight goals in 12 games for Marseille following 10 scoreless appearances with Nice to start the Ligue 1 campaign.
