Stefano Eranio has some doubts about Mario Balotelli

Speaking at the microphones of 'Kiss Kiss Napoli', Stefano Eranio also touched on the issue related to the signing of Mario Balotelli by Genoa, expressing some perplexities about the market operation made official on Monday. More than the technical aspect, it is the character aspect that has left some perplexity in the mind of the former midfielder.

"Mario’s qualities as a player are not in question – said Eranio, who of the Grifone è was a footballer and, later, coach of the Primavera team -, Balotelli’s problem è that è so much that he runs around and has no longer found his own dimension, in each of his new adventures è always started with enthusiasm and then è faded away at a distance, I think a little bit; for his character".

"Però – added the class of 1966 native of the Genoese district of Molassana – he è questioned himself, he accepted a low contract, it is said around 250 thousand euros. Now he seems more ù mature. He wants to start from scratch hoping he can lead Genoa to salvation, and always following the reasoning Genoa must also save Balotelli".

Balotelli rediscovers Serie A more than four years after the last time, when he wore the Brescia jersey: the experience with the Rondinelle was followed by one with Monza in Serie B and two stints in Turkey at Adana Demirspor, interspersed with a Swiss interlude at Sion.
