Agent Raiola spoke to RMC about the situation and vented his own frustration at SuperMario.

“I’ve got a solution. I’ll cut his tongue off, that way there are no more excuses.”

Italy Coach Giampiero Ventura commented this week that the signs coming from Balotelli were “not positive” with regards to a future call-up.
