Balotelli Remains With Italy Squad Ahead Of Armenia Match

Sunday, 13 October 2013



Mario Balotelli will remain with the Italian national team despite his fitness woes ahead of the Azzurri’s match against Armenia on Tuesday.

The 23-year-old was not on the bench or in the stands for last night’s 2-2 draw against Denmark due to illness.

However he returned to training on Saturday in Florence but did not last long as he left the field soon after.



“The player will remain with us,” Professor Enrico Castellacci stated as reported with ANSA.

“It’s impossible to put a number on the likelihood of a return for Tuesday.

“It’s encouraging to see he returned to training after five days, but he is being held back by gastroenteritis. We will evaluate him day by day.
