AC Milan boss Seedorf dismisses latest Balotelli controversy

AC Milan coach Clarence Seedorf has dismissed Mario Balotelli's latest controversy. The striker missed Italy's game with Spain in midweek after suffering with a shoulder injury. However, the controversial forward took to Twitter on March 5, posing with a racket.

"I'm not here to tell people how to use their own means of communication," said Seedorf. "For you [journalists] this is news - that is a sad thing. What makes for news in Italy is a worry to me.

"This is such a trivial thing. Who cares if he played table tennis? He had a six-hour treatment.

"Ban players using Twitter? Unless there is a legal issue, I don't think you can do that. I'm not here to discuss Balo's behaviour.

"He's done his recovery and is available."
