Balotelli: 'I like Juve and Napoli'

By Football Italia staff

Nice striker Mario Balotelli admits he is “ready to come back to Italy. Milan would be difficult, but I like Juventus and Napoli.”

The forward has rediscovered his confidence in Ligue 1 after two years with OGC Nice and has clear ideas on what to do next.

“My agent Mino Raiola is taking care of my future. All I know is that I have matured and I am ready to come back to Italy,” SuperMario told Rai Sport show La Domenica Sportiva.

“I think it’d be very difficult to come to Milan, as it would be the third time, but Juventus and Napoli are two teams that I like.”

It’s widely believed interim Italy Coach Gigi Di Biagio will call Balotelli for upcoming friendlies against Argentina and England.

“Last season Ventura came to Nice before the game with PSG. We had a long talk, but I realised straight away that he wasn’t ever going to call me up for his team.

“I deserved to be called up, though. Now he is no longer on the bench and I am ready to come back for the Azzurri.”
