Tapiro d’Oro to Mario Balotelli after Patrick Vieira’s arrival at Genoa

Tapiro d'Oro to Mario Balotelli

Here comes the Tapiro d'Oro for Mario Balotelli, the sixth of his career. A few weeks after the announcement of Super Mario’s big return to Serie A at Genoa, in fact, the Rossoblù club has exonerated Alberto Gilardino, replacing him with Patrick Vieira, the coach with whom Balotelli had 'clashed' when both were at Nice.

Delivering it to him è was, of course, the tapiroforo Valerio Staffelli. "It è not true that I didn’t get along at Nice, è that I wanted to go and play at Marseille – explained the Rossobl&ugrave striker -. We had some differences on some soccer ideas, but on a personal level we always got along. You should give the Tapiro to him!".

And on teammate Vieira, Super Mario jokes: "We played together at’Inter and City: he was quiet but he broke the boxes a little bit'".

The full report will be aired tonight on Striscia la notizia (Channel 5, 8:35 pm).
