He may currently be competing in the Switzerland and Sion, but some years ago the Mario Balotelli was one of the most popular fours in Europe.
“Super Mario” gave a long interview to an Italian radio station, where he talked about his career and made special mention of the two Italian teams, Inter and Milan, which he emphasized marked him the most. At the same time, he mentioned his relationship with Jose Mourinhowhom he also considers pivotal in his career.
His statements in detail:
“Since I was little, I played for fun. My parents always tried to hold me back because I wasn’t an ordinary kid.
As a child I did not understand the trust in other parents on the part of my biological parents, now I can say that with this choice my biological family helped me.
Now I understand this option. I owe my entire career to Inter, but at heart I am always a Milanista. Mourinho is very nice.
I had a special relationship with him, a beautiful relationship. We have two difficult characters to manage, we often fought, but it was a loving conflict, between father and son.
One time we got into a fight on the team bus and I asked the bus driver to let me off, I got in my car and went home. Then Inter lost and a mess followed…
I’ve done a lot of shit in my life but I’ve always come out ahead. Inter’s treble? Mourinho made the difference, he brings out the best in you, he makes you angry.
And you, in order to react, break everything, release all the adrenaline that collects in your body.”
