Striker French "Nice" Mario Balotelli in a joking manner responded to a flurry of criticism about his problems with excess weight.

Forward posted a fun post on the Instagram network, confirming, thus, reproaches in his address.

Note that Balotelli was withdrawn from the Italian national team because of problems with the physical form. Later it became known that the player "Nice" began the pre-season training with a weight of more than 100 kilograms.

Forward missed the last match of the championship of France, not even hitting the team's bid, which this summer was led by the legendary French football player Patrick Vieira, replacing Lucien Favre.

Last season Balotelli had 38 matches in Nice, where he scored 26 goals.
