Former Wales international Robbie Savage feels Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers should try to sell Mario Balotelli in January for as much money possible.
Balotelli arrived at Anfield from AC Milan this summer for a fee of £16m, but so far he has flattered to deceive at Liverpool.
He is still to score in the league for his new club and has been a major source of frustration for the Reds, both on and off the field.
Many have questioned Rodgers’ rationale in bringing the mercurial striker back in England, but Savage feels January presents an opportunity for the Northern Irishman to end his Italian experiment.

The former Manchester United man believes the Liverpool manager should cut his losses and recoup as much money as possible by selling Balotelli next month.
"I'd try and get as much money as you can for Balotelli in the January transfer window”, Savage told BBC Radio 5 live.
"His goalscoring record for AC Milan and everywhere he's been has been OK, so, for £16m, he was worth taking a chance on. But I don't think he's done anything."
