Balotelli, who only signed for the Rossoneri in January in a high-profile €20million move, has already made an instant impact for his new side, scoring a brace on his debut last weekend to lead his side to a 2-1 win over Udinese.
The Italian international, while undoubtedly talented, is notorious for his antics off-the-pitch, and many believe that the Rossoneri's signing of the 22-year-old would only hinder the club in the long run.
However, Flamini firmly believes that Balotelli would be able to lead the club to glory and backed him to fulfill his potential at the San Siro.
"Balotelli's arrival is fantastic," Flamini told Milan Channel.
"He has so much potential.
"We have so many quality players already and with Balotelli up front we hope to win a lot of trophies."
With Milan set to take on Cagliari in their next Serie A fixture, Flamini urged his side to be fully focused in order to take home all three points.
"The match with Cagliari could prove crucial," Flamini added.
"We will face a very good team, but we want to play well and take home three points.
Milan have performed way below expectations this season; the Rossoneri have only amassed 40 points from 23 games are currently lie 5th in the table.
