On the last day of the Trento Sports Festival, Balotelli was interviewed and talked about his past career.
After you won the Premier League title with Manchester City and scored goals for the national team, many Italian clubs were interested in you, and AC Milan finally signed you. Did you make this choice yourself, Mario?
"Theoretically I should have gone to Juventus, but in the end Mino (Raiola) and I secretly made a decision in the middle of the night, and then I went to Milan. But actually, when I came back from Manchester, I planned to go to Turin."
So do you prefer Inter Milan or Milan?
"I preferred Milan when I was a kid, but I also respect Inter Milan very much. I must frankly say that half of my career should be attributed to Inter Milan."
Do you like Leo or Lautaro?
"I like both, but now Lautaro is more efficient, and Leo is more talented. Leo can definitely play center, he is a force of nature. If he really wants to get better, not only for the team but also for himself, there are not many players as strong as him. If he can remain stable, then he will really become very, very strong."
