Striker Nice Mario Balotelli did not show up for the first training session after the holidays.

On Monday, July 2, Nice left the vacation and began pre-season training, but Mario Balotelli ignored the occupation.

"We were waiting for Mario in today's training session," said the new head coach of Nice, Patrick Vieira, at the press conference on the start of the preparations for the season.. "However, I can confirm that Balotelli is not here. We will wait, how he will explain his absence ".

The 27-year-old Balotelli intends to leave Nice this summer and, according to media reports, has already agreed a contract with Marcel. However, his contract with the current club expires only June 30, 2019, so he was required to arrive at the collection.

The striker, for whom Nice intends to receive 10 million euros, was spotted late Sunday night at a rapper concert 6ix9ine, and apparently did not have time to get enough sleep.
