Italy coach Cesare Prandelli believes Roberto Mancini's decision to drop Mario Balotelli for Manchester City's last match was purely for footballing reasons.
Meanwhile, the relationship between Balotelli and Mancini is similar to a "husband and wife's", says the player's agent. "They argue, but they love and respect each other so much," Mino Raiola told Radio CRC. "Everyone has their own ideas, but Mario will remain at Manchester City. He won't go to AC Milan. "He will be a City player for at least another two and a half years because Mario is not thinking about other clubs."
