Mario Balotelli is an Italian footballer who plays for the Italian ‘Ligue 1’ club ‘Nice’ and for the Italian national football team. Born to African parents and raised in Sicily, Mario began his career as a footballer with ‘Lumezzane’ and made his senior debut at the age of 15. In April 2006, he made his debut in the ‘Serie C1’ league. Following that, he had a trial for ‘Barcelona,’ which turned out to be a bad experience for Mario, as he was not considered for the team. In 2007, he finally joined ‘Internazionale,’ but his two-year-long association with them was plagued with disciplinary issues, which had him getting suspended from the first team in 2009. ‘Manchester City’ acquired him in 2010, and Mario’s performance continued to flourish with the team. Following a violent incident, he left ‘Manchester City’ and joined the Italian club ‘AC Milan.’ After his one-and-a-half-year-long stint with ‘Milan,’ Mario returned to ‘Premier League’ with ‘Liverpool.’ He was soon loaned to ‘Milan’ and then transferred to ‘Nice.’
