"Man City" strategist Roberto Mancini closely watches Madrid's "Atletico" forward Radamel Falcao, who could replace Mario Balotelli in the ranks of the English champions.
Although there is no doubt about the talent of the Italian national team forward, his behavior on and off the field could soon test Mancini's patience.
The situation remains unchanged this season - Balotelli, who started the weekend match against "Sunderland" in the starting lineup, was substituted in the second half and immediately rushed to the locker room. Without watching his teammates play, he soon sat on a plane and flew to Milan, where the local clubs' derby took place - "Inter" against "Milan."
It is said that in the near future Falcao could take Balotelli's place in Manchester, who scored as many as 36 goals for the "Atletico" team last season. However, the problem would be his price, which in the market could reach almost 60 million euros.
In addition, the president of the Spanish club, Enrique Cerezo, would not rush to sell the Colombian: "We know that Mancini came to watch our match and at the same time Falcao, but we are calm. Maybe he will just enjoy his time in Malaga."
Falcao himself would like to test himself in England: "Maybe one day I will play there. I used to watch the Premier League on TV, players like Roy Keane, Eric Cantona, Gianfranco Zola, and others. I think I would fit in and score goals."
