Mario Balotelli, who once played for the Italy national team, has disclosed the reason he did not achieve the same level of success as Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Ghanaian-born Italian footballer stated that he could not attain that level of football due to lacking the Portuguese legend’s work ethic.
As a young footballer, Balotelli was regarded as one of the top strikers, but he failed to fulfill the expectations that many football fans had for his talent.
Throughout his illustrious career, Balotelli has played for several clubs, including Inter Milan, AC Milan, Manchester City, Liverpool, Marseille, OGC Nice, Monza, and Adana Demirspor.
The chances of me playing in Italy or Europe again are slim. Before I stop, I will play for two or three years.
This summer, Balotelli’s contract with Italian Serie A team Genoa will end, and he is currently putting on his boots for the squad.
The player who previously played for Manchester City disclosed that he will be joining Major League Soccer (MLS) once his contract ends.
„Ja, Amerika. He said, “I will play for two or three years before I stop.”
On Monday, Ronaldo received his second golden boot after his second season in the Saudi Pro League.
The captain of the Portugal national team, however, declared that his time with Al-Nassr may have concluded.
It is reported that Ronaldo has finalized plans to join Al Nassr’s rivals, Al Hilal, in order to take part in the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup.
The 40-year-old ex-Real Madrid attacker shows no signs of slowing down as he aims to become the first footballer to score 1,000 career goals.
