1. Mario Balotelli – Manchester City players that never made it
While he’s loved and adored at the Etihad Stadium, and rightfully so, Mario Balotelli used to be one of the lethal strikers in world football. He has scored around 30 goals in 75 matches for the Cityzens.
He used to fight with his teammates during his time at the Etihad. He had arguments with Micah Richards, club captain Vincent Kompany and a few others.
Mario also had a grumpy relationship with then-manager Roberto Mancini. Mancini criticised the Italian striker as a player who lacks discipline after several red cards and club fines.
He finally left for Milan after three controversial years at the Etihad. But his golden days were past indeed. So he ranks pretty high amongst the Players Never Made It At Manchester City.
