Balotelli edging closer to Inter Milan sale courtesy of hangers-on

All signs are that Inter Milan will sell Mario Balotelli in the summer.

Balotelli was axed for last night's defeat at Catania, with his camp hitting out at coach Jose Mourinho through the press.

Before last night's defeat, Inter president Massimo Moratti called out the player's minders: “The important thing is that they don't damage the club and the player.”

Moratti was also pressed on Corrado Balotelli's claim that Mino Raiola is now representing Mario.

Raiola famously orchestrated Zlatan Ibrahimovic's move away from Inter last summer.

“It suits me that Raiola is his agent. I have done good business with him in the past,” Moratti replied coldly.

"Mourinho taught Terry how to be a hero on and off the pitch in the sense of being in the public eye"

Get a grip, how can anyone every say Terry has acted as a hero off the pitch?????

If this is what Mourinho taught him then it pisses all over your theroy that "Not many coaches have the capacity to build a player up "in every way" which is basically Mourinho's specialty", cause Terry is a sleaze off the pitch and certainly no hero!

You are right in saying that Mourinho, like Alex Ferguson, has no control over what players do, such as sleep about, so don't claim Mourinho produces heros on and off the field when John Terry, and Ashely Cole for that matter, prove he doesn't.

I would take the gunners coach over this fool any day. mario is going to be a top class player...the last time he berated this kid in the press about losing a contact...it turned out that he was cut in the head from a kick...but you never saw that in the news! JM was wrong, that is why he came out and said that he doesn't have a problem with Mario...one of the things i fine is that racist never watch this kid play they just run their stupid mouth...i would love to see him with the gunners...give him the type of service the gunners give and he will score 30 -40 a season!
