Travellers looking to go to Liverpool in the near futire might find the going more difficult than usual, as Mario Balotelli and his agent Mino Raiola are currently burning every bridge leading to the city.
First, Raiola, who also represents Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba and also owns Al Capone's old house, hit out at Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.
Here's what Raola told Gazzetta dello Sport:
"In the end, the higher-ups at Liverpool admitted that Klopp was wrong."
"I'm not trying to judge him as a coach — although, for me, he's not a good coach -- but he didn't understand that Balotelli is, whatever else, a person.
"Mario has been exemplary. He never complained about training alone. To say that it was wrong of Klopp would be an understatement, he was a piece of s*** about it."
We would add a snarky translation here but really Raiola did the work for us. His client decided to get his licks in too, his directed at former Liverpool defender and professional sayer of things Jamie Carragher,

The best part of this Tweet is Balotelli's reflection in the trophy. Priceless.
