Reports suggest that Real Madrid are looking to sign the Manchester City striker, Mario Balotelli, who is currently performing phenomenally for Italy in the Euro 2012.
Real Madrid are looking for players who can bolster their attack and defence, since their midfield is already too strong. There were rumours which suggested that the Spanish giants are going to sign http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Silva-c10601.
However, recent rumours suggest that Jose Mourinho is not looking to add more players to his midfield, as there are already a number of players who can play in those positions. In fact the Portuguese mentor is expected to add more to the team’s attacking
prowess.
Therefore, there are speculations surrounding the transfer of the Manchester City star, Mario Balotelli.
The Italian striker recently showed his better side after he managed to play throughout the 120 minutes against England, during the Euro 2012 quarter-finals.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 in the quarter-final stage of the European competition and after drawing the game both the teams settled the game on penalties and Mario Balotelli was the player who converted the first penalty in order to help his side qualify for the
semi-finals.
Italy then faced the tournament’s hot-favourite side, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904, in the semi-final and managed to beat them 2-1. It was Mario Balotelli who scored a brace and showed that he is a player any team can count on.
During the Premier League season, Mario Balotelli was phenomenal but his ‘bad boy’ image was highlighted time and time again as he was red carded after he got frustrated and decided to hit the opposition player.
However, while playing for the Italian national side, Balotelli has behaved throughout the tournament and that is the reason why he has benched http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Antonio-Di-Natale-c6306.
Mario Balotelli is now under Real Madrid radar as Mourinho is trying to add another striker to his ranks. Gonzalo Higuain is expected to join Juventus this season while http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Karim-Benzema-c20350 cannot last throughout the season.
Therefore, Mourinho needs to add competition for the French striker and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mario-Balotelli-c23937 is a definitely a player who can provide that competition.
Signing for Real Madrid would mean that Balotelli will once again be playing for Jose Mourinho; the two of them were together back when Mourinho coached http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan and Balotelli played for the Italian giants.
However, signing Balotelli can be a big responsibility as the Italian star is famous for his antics not only on the pitch, but also off the pitch.
