Mario Balotelli Agrees AC Milan Deal



Man City forward Mario Balotelli has agreed a four-and-a-half year deal with Italian giants AC Milan.
   The madcap Italian has become something of a burden for Man City manager Roberto Mancini, with his squad becoming increasingly unhappy with his treatment of the striker.
   Balotelli will fly to Milan, for a medical on Wednesday. AC Milan director Umberto Gandini, has confirmed a fee has been agreed with the Manchester club, and that the striker will sign until 2017, with the fee believed to be around £19m (rising to 22m with add-ons).
   The move comes just days after a training ground spat between the 22 year old and Mancini, and is one that will be welcomed by the vast majority of Manchester's blue side.
  The trials and tribulations of Italy's finest have been a great source of entertainment over his brief spell in the English top-flight, yet his talents have yet to be truly witnessed, or even recognised by himself.
  Yet it seems after all, Balotelli has been sold in light of form rather than off-the-field antics. But with a lot of potential yet to fulfil, forget him at your peril...
