Chelsea defender and Liverpool striker set to join Serie A club in surprise switch?

A replacement / support for Mario Balotelli

Mario Balotelli to Napoli Chelsea and Liverpool fans here inside the Football Transfer Tavern are unsure what to make of what they have just read in the Express – with the publication claiming that Serie A outfit Sampdoria are eyeing a double swoop for Chelsea ace Kurt Zouma and Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli.

Chelsea fans here in the Transfer Tavern seem even more irate after hearing the news because they all feel Zouma has serious potential, and feel he could have a massive impact on the team next season.

Liverpool fans don’t seem too bothered about the news as much as Chelsea fans, because Balotelli has been an utter flop since arriving at Anfield.

The Italian striker has only scored a measly one goal in the Premier League since arriving at the club, and fans of the Merseyside club have simply had enough of the forward now.

Chelsea and Liverpool fans….. What do you make of this shock news? Would you be gutted to see them leave your club? Let us know your thoughts and opinions in the comments below!
