Liverpool's out of form striker Mario Balotelli could be heading for a loan move to Greece. Olympiakos are understood to have contacted the Anfield side regarding the Italy international striker's current availability.

The misfiring forward has struggled since making a move back to the Premier League and it is understood that Brendan Rodgers, the Liverpool coach, has told Balotelli he is free to leave on loan in January.

At least four teams have been in contact with Liverpool regarding Balotelli, but it is Olympiakos who are leading the pack.

Balotelli joined from AC Milan last summer but has failed to impress, the complete opposite of the striker's original spell at Man City, when the Italian helped guide the Premier League side to domestic success.
