La Gazzetta dello Sport speaks about the possible return of Inter’s Mario Balotelli. The pink newspaper opens up with a picture of the kid who grew up in the Nerazzurri youthsquad and now with an unburied hatchet with Roberto Mancini at Manchester City. These are the words of Piero Ausilio:
“If the City want to sell, we have a right of first refusal on the sale. To come up with our own bid.”
According to La Gazzetta, this is a very important factor that puts Inter in the lead, after having Milan considering a purchase and the appreciation for Balotelli from Walter Mazzarri and Napoli.

Balotelli says to Sky that there is a pre-emption clause effective, but with specific duration. That is, if City received an offer and wanted to sell Balotelli, Inter would be contacted and could come with an counter offer within 48 hours. This is the advantage that definitely keeps the Nerazzurri on track.
