Balotelli believes his client is worth around £60million.
Balotelli’s representative Mino Raiola said: “Mario is well in Manchester and perhaps he’ll extend his contract.
“My feeling is that it won’t be easy for him to return to Serie A. He is too ‘big’ for Italy.”
Balotelli, who has three years left on his City deal, has been linked with the likes of AC Milan and Napoli in recent months.
Raiola said: “If Inter and AC Milan have difficulties in finding £25m to invest on Tevez, how can they pay £50m or £60m for Balotelli? This is the value of Balotelli, he’s No 1.”
