It was a misunderstanding from last season. And in the end, the Valais club cost the competition: the transfer of Mario Balotelli (32). His performances were nothing short of a parody of modern football. A joke you don’t laugh at anymore.
At FC Sion, nobody wants the unruly Sicilian anymore. And he also wants to get out of the Rhone Valley as soon as possible. But he can’t get away from President Christian Constantin that easily! “As of Monday, Mario will start individual special training to get him in salable condition. So that he can do his job as a professional should. A state that he has never reached with us,” says CC.
CC is disappointed – and angry
The club owner is disappointed and angry with the former Super Mario: “He promised me twenty goals from the game. He scored three… How can you not be disappointed?”
But who wants this enfant terrible, who still has a one-year contract in Sion and reportedly earns 2.8 million francs? A number that CC refers to as overrun. There are tracks leading to Romania, more specifically to Rapid Bucharest. The traditional club certainly cannot afford the Italian, but there is always a whimsical billionaire to be found.
On the other hand, there is a lot more money in Mexican football because of the horrible TV rights contracts. There, record champion Club America from Mexico City showed interest. However, Balotelli should not be the first choice for the club, which play at the legendary Aztec Stadium, which has a capacity of 95,000 fans. Who cares? But somehow it would fit, Balotelli and one Fiesta Mexicana after another…
Balotelli under Maurizio Sarri? Unthinkable!
Or else? Balotelli himself could envision a return to Serie A. Promoted to Cagliari with coaching legend Claudio Ranieri should be an option. In any case, Balotelli would have said this to friends. But maybe it’s just an advertising campaign by his agents around Vincenzo Raiola.
There are also rumors about number two Lazio Rome. However: imagine Balotelli under the iron disciplinarian Maurizio Sarri! And then in the Champions League! Seems somehow surreal after the performances in Zion, even absurd.
The president wants his $2.5 million back
“There is no specific offer,” says Constantin. “Last weekend we met with Balotelli’s advisers and his lawyer. Not clear.” One thing is clear: CC wants money for the Italian. He wants to see his investment refinanced. After all, less than a year ago he paid 2.5 million francs to Adana Demirspor to secure the services of the man who now has his life in Brescia.
At the time he scored 19 goals in the Süper Lig, now he goes with six in the Super League. Numbers that don’t help maintain a market value. Balotelli’s is at least halved at Sion.
