Mario Balotelli, who for several years was summoned to the Italy national team, ceased to be taken into account due to his controversial attitudes, some of them fights with technicians or unprofessional attitudes on the field, such as making an unnecessary luxury play.

In addition to the aforementioned, their performance dropped and they lost prominence in the Italian attack. However, after four years, the attacker will once again have a chance at the current champion of the European Championship.

According to the well-known journalist Fabrizio Romano, Mario will once again be taken into account by coach Roberto Mancini, who previously had him at Manchester City. The call will be for the playoff duels in Italy.

The ‘Azzurri’ finished in third place in Group C and only managed to qualify for the playoffs. On March 24, they will have to face Macedonia and if they win, they will then play against the winner of the duel between Turkey and Portugal.

Thinking about those games, Mancini would have decided on Balotelli’s call, today a player for Adana Demirspor in the Turkish Super League. In 18 games, he has 7 goals and two assists.

Italy did not qualify for the 2018 Russia World Cup and despite winning Euro 2021 by beating England in the final, it may be left out of a new World Cup event, a competition it has not won since Germany 2006.
