Former Inter Milan coach Roberto Mancini has spoken of his relationship with Nice striker Mario Balotelli.

The pair spoke together on TMW Radio.

Mancini said, “Mario is a really good kid, but a bit ruled by his instinct. Apart from when he does something daft… but those can happen when you're young.

“He has so much quality that, when he started, he should've been at the level of Ronaldo. If he isn't there now, then at least some of that is his own fault.

“Now he is 26 years old and can do a little more."
