In an interview with Sky Sports on Tuesday, Balotelli said: “At the start, I chose Nice for the climate; I wanted to be in a relaxing but beautiful place, where it’s difficult to get out the wrong side of the bed.”
“The other reason I chose Nice is because there’s a decent group of young players. We’re all about the same age,” he said.
On his previous clubs, Liverpool and AC Milan, the Italian said: “I didn’t make mistakes in terms of my game or my behavior, but I did get injured and that’s not something I can control.”
When asked about Liverpool’s current coach, German Jurgen Klopp, he said: “Klopp doesn’t know me. I was with him at Liverpool for one and a half months and I spoke with him just once. He told me that I could stay, but that I wasn’t first choice.”
“He said he felt it was better if I went to play somewhere else to play well and then go back because he wanted me as a player. I said arrivederci and told him he would never see me again,” he added.
