Euro 2020 Balotelli showed interest in Barcelona – Sandro

According to Sky Sport, Barcelona president Sandro Rosell has revealed that Mario Balotelli has tried to line up a switch to the Catalan club in the past.

Balotelli made his return to his homeland during last month’s transfer window, this time joining Inter’s arch nemesis Milan from Manchester City.

The 22-year-old did not take part in Milan’s 2-0 win over Barcelona on Wednesday even as he was cup-tied for the Citizens which proved him to be ineligible for the clash.

Rosell admitted after the game that Balotelli had been keen to make the switch to La Liga football in the past.

“Balotelli has tried several times to come to Barcelona,” Rosell told Sky Sport Italia.

“I do not know whether he would play well against a club for which he desperately wanted to play. I want to congratulate Milan on the transfer.”
