Mario Balotheli, his striker Genoahas revolted on his social media account because he was not noticed at all by coach Patrick Viera in 2025. `Someone had to deal with with Mario The rebel from 16 years old, not with the current mature player! ”, Was the Instagram Story posted by the 34-year-old Italian.
The peak with 36 selections and 14 goals in Squadra Azzurra sent arrows again against those who considered that it was not worth being part of Patrick Vieira's team, the Italian press reading among the ranks that the recipient would be the coach with whom he quarreled with Nice.
“Someone from here deserves not a mature mario, but on the 16-year-old rebel. It may understand what such a lack of respect implies”, Balotheli wrote last night, without indicating the target of his words.
Balotheli does not play since December. Recently, he broke his hand!
Although he promised that he was a good boy, Balotheli did not convince Patrick Viera to rely on him, the last time the technician appealed to him on December 21, even at the first match played by Genoa after the Liguric club passed under Dan Șucu's patronage.

Mario was the last change made by coach Rossoblu in the match with Naples (1-2), in which he entered the 83rd minute instead of Miretti, to force the equalization of Luigi Ferraris. And he even had a good opportunity to mark, but the ball diverted by him went near the meret gate.
Since then, Balotheli has caught the list of reserves (unused) only twice, in the parties with Lecce and Parma, after which he has completely disappeared. He just trained, and more than a month ago he was injured. The striker broke his fifth metacarpal of his right hand and needed surgery.
