Mario Balotelli lands at Nice
You may recall that Thomas Rongen suggested the New York Red Bulls were interested in bringing Mario Balotelli aboard the RalfBall bandwagon. It was one of the more entertaining and short-lived transfer rumors of the summer season.
Balotelli did not land at RBNY, but he has finally left Liverpool. The news of Balotelli's (free) transfer to Nice will be of relief to the rumor mill, which was running out of clubs to suggest he might join. Now the gossip-mongers can at least take a breath to regroup before launching a fresh round of whispers whenever it is that the always-newsworthy Italian next appears unsettled.
