Italian football striker, Mario Balotelli has reportedly been sacked by his club Brescia after he skipped training for ten days.

Reports in Italy on Saturday morning claimed Brescia owner Massimo Cellino sent the controversial footballer a letter requesting the termination of his three-year contract at the club after he failed to show up for training when lockdown restrictions were eased.

The 29-year-old former Manchester City and Liverpool player was contracted to Brescia until 2022, following the £160,000-per-week deal he signed with his hometown club back in August 2019.

It was reported that his contract with Brescia was set to be terminated at the end of the 2019/20 campaign. But according to Football Italia and Gazzetta dello Sport, his contract with the club has now been terminated.

Newspaper Repubblica also claimed that both Cellino and Balotelli, who earns £877,000-a-year at Brescia have also reached a financial settlement.

Speaking in a recent interview with BBC, Cellino admitted his regret at signing Balotelli who scored five goals in 19 games for the club.

I think this will be the last time he'd ever play professional football. A player who was naturally gifted but he chose to allow pride and laziness a chance in his life.
His own case reminds me of a player called Adriano of Brazil, who towed similar path years ago and the last that was heard of him is that he's street tout and an alcoholic.
Balotelli why always you?

Dis guy jus use stubbornness and arrogance ruin him career... Years from now he'll look back in regret on what could have been a wondrous career

This guy just dey force stubbornness to himself , his career is over , hope he has enough savings to last him

This guy just dey force stubbornness to himself , he is not naturally stubborn, his career is over , hope he has enough savings to last him

He never apply wisdom to his stubbornness , like Veira, keane, Edmundo 'the animal and de canio

Has nothing to regret? Like seriously? Since his family is one of the richest in Italy why is he playing football? A typical african believes football is an escape from poverty
