BALOTELLI IMPROVING

Many have regarded Italian international Mario Balotelli as one of the best talents in world football right now, but he has been unable to take his talent to the next level due to a number of problems on and off the pitch.

However, he has sparkled since his move to Milan. He returned to the San Siro after an £ 18 million move from Manchester city in January of this year. He certainly helped Milan finishing the top three of the Serie A last season, but he is on course to getting them win the title this season.

Balotelli has also been remarkable for the Italian national team as well. He almost helped them win the Euro 2012, while Italy also did well at the Confederations cup due to the 22-year-old striker. Milan recently brought in their former star Kaka from Real Madrid on a free transfer. He is expected to be one of the important players in the team this season. He has paid tribute to the 22-year-old striker Balotelli by saying that he is one of the best in the world right now. Milan will be travelling to Celtic Park in order to take the Scottish outfit.

Milan are grouped along with Barcelona, Celtic, and Ajax in the Champions league this season.

“Mario can be the best striker in the world. He is already showing at Milan that it won’t be long before people call him that. It is not just goals. He is very creative and sets up many goals for the team as well. Mario is the complete striker and at his age is only going to get better. I remember the two games against ­Celtic in 2007. It was an ­exceptional Milan team – and it took extra time for us to win the tie. They are a tough team," said Kaka.
