At 30, Mario Balotelli seems to be at an impasse. To the point of finding himself free since the end of his contract with Brescia this summer. On alternating current in Nice then at OM, the Italian international failed to revive in the club of his region of origin. Very poorly performing and in conflict with his leaders, the former Inter Milan striker has further damaged his image in Italy. In France, his interesting time in Nice, especially during the first part of his Riviera adventure, seems to leave him a rating in Ligue 1. According to L’Equipe, Nantes and Saint-Etienne have thought of Super Mario.
The Greens do not insist
If the interest of Nantes seems to have quickly vanished in the face of the reluctance of the coach of the Canaries, Christian Gourcuff, among the Greens, the will has been more extensive. According to the daily, Jean-Luc Buisine, director of the Saint-Etienne recruitment unit, surveyed Balotelli and his agent, Mino Raiola. ASSE was prepared to offer 100,000 euros gross monthly plus bonuses.
But the questions that remained in Saint-Etienne about the involvement, motivation and state of form of the former Manchester City player prompted the Saint-Etienne leaders not to dwell on the file, especially that Raiola did not follow up on the Greens’ offer.
