Mario Balotelli asks for patience
The player’s agent Mino Raiola had also revealed that Balotelli opted for a traditional treatment in order to get rid of the injury, but the 25-year-old’s physical conditions have show no improvement in the last few weeks.
Doctor Francesco Benazzo operated Balotelli’s knee back in 2010 and today he released an interview to the Italian TV channel Sport Mediaset.
“Mario will definitely get rid of the sports hernia if he undergoes surgery. Trouble is, it might be difficult to find out the causes of the injury. I guess that Milan and Liverpool’s doctors are taking into account all options and they will decide as soon as possible what is better for the player.”
The former Inter and Manchester City star is reported to be willing to undergo the operation. In the meanwhile he appeared to be in good mood on social networks, despite the layoff.
‘Can't wait to be back in the pitch to score with these! Patience!’ Balotelli wrote on his official Instagram account posting a picture of his new Puma’s boots.
