Brescia, Balotelli skips training again; club considering parting ways with player

Five days later, we're here again. Brescia attacker Mario Balotelli who did not show up at the sporting center last Tuesday for his scheduled training session, skipped out again on practice today. The class of 1990 striker was told to be at training at 9am, but never arrived at the pitch. He was supposed to undergo some therapy for a small injury he picked up last Friday, but it was not possible.

From Monday to Saturday, Balotelli will have, or better to say would have, two training sessions per day, one at 9am and the other at 7p. Obviously these will be individual sessions and not with the group, but it is yet to be seen if he will show up.

The club and especially its president Cellino are fed up of the situation and Balotelli's antics. This last no-show is making them consider how to resolve his contract early and they may try to do-so. Balotelli has appeared 19 times for Brescia this season, scoring 5 goals.
