Balotelli taking Man City to tribunal over mega bucks fine

Mario Balotelli is at war with Manchester City management.

The Sunday Mirror says Balotelli is taking Manchester City to a Premier League tribunal to overturn a £340,000 club fine.

City handed down the fine after deciding that Balotelli was guilty of a series of breaches of discipline.

But the 22-year-old believes that the punishment is ­unjust.

After failing with an appeal to the club's hierarchy, he ­instructed his agent to pursue City through a tribunal.

If Balotelli loses his appeal, he faces paying the five-figure costs of the hearing, as well as the fine.
