Balotelli, whose career has been marked by a number of fads on and off the field, can claim another chance in the national team. The last 36th match for Italy took place in September 2018 in the League of Nations against Poland.
He has been playing for the Turkish league rookie Adanu Demirspor since last summer and scored eight goals in 19 matches. He will now try to convince national team coach Robert Mancini, under whom he played for Inter Milan and Manchester City. Balotelli also worked in AC Milan and Liverpool.
