AC Milan forward Mario Balotelli is reportedly unhappy with new coach Filippo Inzaghi’s training methods.
The mercurial forward has been strongly linked with a return to the Premier League this summer, though an official offer has yet to materialize.
Despite numerous controversies on and off the pitch, Balotelli has maintained decent form throughout last season, scoring 14 goals in 30 Serie A outings.
However, La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the striker was confused and unhappy with one of Inzaghi’s drills. While in training, the player asked for further clarifications on an exercise that focused on finishing. However, he was quoted saying “but how the heck can we score goals if we play like that,” due to the large amount of misplaced crosses during the training exercise.
Inzaghi’s reign as coach of the club has already began poorly, as 2-0 wins against lower league teams Renate and Monza were negated by a 3-0 loss to Olimpiacos and a 5-1 battering at the hands of Manchester City during the team’s preseason US tour.
