Mario Balotelli’s behavior is causing not only frustration among AC Milan’s leadership but also criticism from his teammate El Shaarawy. Following the critical comments from Adriano Galliani, the vice-president of the Lombard club, El Shaarawy has added his perspective. The Egyptian-origin striker urges Balotelli to reassess his attitude, emphasizing that it has a detrimental impact on the entire team.
In an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport, relayed by Eurosport, El Shaarawy stated, “Mario knows he was wrong and he apologized to the team at the end of the match against Napoli. He made a mistake. It is an aspect of his character that he must improve because his attitude penalizes us.”
The relationship between Mario Balotelli and Stephane El Shaarawy seems strained, with the latter highlighting the need for improvement in Balotelli’s behavior, citing its negative effects on the team. The reference to Balotelli’s past antics, such as pranks in training, further underscores the tension between the two players.
