Liverpool midfielder Joe Allen has said that he is relishing playing with Mario Balotelli.
The Reds signed the Italy international from AC Milan for around £16m on Monday, and Wales international Allen is looking forward to teaming up with the forward.
Allen told the Liverpool Echo: "He has that spontaneous edge to him. He's going to give us a massive threat. It's a signing that is another great addition.
"It's credit to the club and all the staff who have worked so hard this summer to strengthen the squad on the back of a positive season. It shows our ambition to take that next step going forward.
"All the additions have settled in quickly. That's been a big positive so far. They've brought plenty of pace and they are going to be a big threat for us throughout the year."
Liverpool travel to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
