MARIO BALOTELLI HAS CLAIMED THAT HE ONLY SPOKE TO JURGEN KLOPP ONCE AT LIVERPOOL, AND THAT THE CLUB WAS NOT
AN “IDEAL ENVIRONMENT” FOR HIM.
The 26-year-old was sold to French side Nice in the summer after a two-year spell on Merseyside which saw him score just two league goals for the club.
“Klopp doesn’t know me, I spoke to him once, he told me to go somewhere else, work hard and then return,” Balotelli told Sky Italia.
“So I said goodbye to them, and that we wouldn’t be seeing each other again.”
He also claimed that both AC Milan – where he spent the 2015-16 season on loan – and Liverpool “weren’t adapted to me”, adding: “It wasn’t anyone’s fault. They weren’t ideal
environments for me.
“I didn’t make mistakes in terms of my game or my behaviour, but I did get injured and that’s not something I can control.”
Balotelli has scored six goals in five games for Nice this season.
