Manchester City’s defensive coach, Angelo Gregucci has gone on to claim that Italian international, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mario-Balotelli-c23937 is now ready to fight for his spot in City’s starting eleven.
The striker has managed to only start in six games for City this season, apart from which he has spent a lot of time on the bench. Surprisingly, he was not included in the team at all, when City took on Tottenham and this lead to many people questioning
the youngsters future at the Etihad Stadium.
At the moment, the way things are going at City, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Tevez tend to start for the team. This is then followed by a late appearance from Edin Dzeko. This leaves little to no room in the club for Balotelli to come in and prove his worth.
However, based on how he played for Italy in his recent appearance against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899, it seems like Gregucci feels that Balotelli now has a very good chance of trying to break the barrier and get back into pole position to represent City in the future.
He is reported to have said: "Mario gave a great contribution [for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926] and I saw in him the right attitude and behaviour.
"http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 has chosen to give him a signal and it is his right to make choices. Perhaps during the last week something was missing but Mario is ready to take back the Manchester City shirt."
Balotelli has also been linked with a move to AC Milan in recent weeks, but for the moment Gregucci hasn’t gone on to comment on the situation, and feels that it will be a long wait till the future of the player is revealed.
"Will he stay? It's not up to me to say," he added.
"I just know that he is definitely redeemable. He has 22 years of talent and quality.”
"He is a resource of our football club. He will give his contribution to the national team and to City."
For the moment, all Balotelli can do is continue to play to the best of his abilities, and should he do that, he is guaranteed to get his opportunity to shine at the club.
