Former Italy coach Cesare Prandelli has revisited his relationship with Nice striker Mario Balotelli.

Prandelli spoke of the former AC Milan forward, along with Antonio Cassano on La Domenica Sportiva.

He declared: "I wanted and loved these two players who gave me so much. We did something good with the national team.

"If Balotelli puts his professional life in the foreground, there is no one like him.

"He has incredible potential, but he probably has no goal of becoming one of the best in the world."
