“For Mario it is the last train, he has given up a good contract in Brazil to come, but I have told him, I have told him that this is the very last one, “says Galliani, Managing Director of Monza. The Lombard club is managed by him and Silvio Berlusconi who have rescued one of their favorites from Milan to give him his last chance. “We love him very much, he is a player with physical and technical qualities to have given much more, he is only 30 years old, we do not understand why he cannot work,” says Galliani, who has had to make a great financial effort to be able to convince Balotelli .
His salary for six months will be a fixed amount of 500,000 euros, to which he could add two more bonuses to raise him well above that half million. A condition is fixed to the number of matches that it plays, while it would access another compensation if the team, as it is objective, ascends to Serie A. In order to balance it, according to the Gazzetta dello Sport, Mino Raiola, the player's agent, has resigned to take a commission, also aware that Balotelli's future in football is running out. It is a full-blown rescue operation.
A detail is missing, that on Monday he passes the medical examination. Balotelli was cut by Brescia and has not played a game since last March. His physical situation, as Galliani himself has recognized, is unknown and it will be necessary to see when he can become competitive. Monza has been burning stages, they rose from Serie C and are looking to position themselves quickly in Serie A. A few dates ago they signed Boateng, also without a team, and now they are looking for another blow with Balotelli.
