The Super Mario Balotelli thread....
I heard about this kid a year ago, and he is something to be hold apparently. Wanted by Barca and Fiorentina, Inter have signed him to three years....to fend off other teams.
Soccer experts in Italy regard this kid the real deal, and the FIGC has tried to cap him twice..for U17, but law in Italy states that he can not play since he has no "Italian blood".
However he was born in Italy, and has adopted Italian parents, living in Brescia.
Mario Balotelli Barwuah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
So yes, he is not true Italian, but at least he IS born Italy.
As for his professional career, apperently he has moved to the primavera team, and has outpeformed the young Portugese phenom we have in our youth system,
he is 1.90 meters x 85 kgs
It means Barwuah is 6ft 4, 188 Pounds !! At 17!

Some more info:
Mario Balotelli Barwuah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This season he's scored 18 goals in 17 games for the Inter Allievi Nazionali team (Under-17), he's phenomenal.

As I have said, the FIGC is trying to cap him, but can't.
Now the plan is that when he reaches 18, he will become full Italian with the right papers, and he can start playing for Italy.
Ghana has tried to contact him, but apparently he doesn't want anything to do with him.
He apparently only speaks Italian, not 100 percent sure on that, and that he wants to play for Italy.
Barca are in hot persuit, but Inter now have signed him to 3 year contract...the maximum allowed.
He help Inter defeat Milan reserves a number of weeks ago by scoring two goals, if I'm not mistaken.
They were big on Martins at this age, and they were right about him. They are even bigger on this kid, as many people are, and he is bigger, faster, stronger, and has more technical ability.

Read on Inter.it that he played for the primavera squad against Chievo. Came off the bench and scored.
Our future in the striking dept. is looking good. Slavkovski, this beast and ribas.

Yes, we are always fine up front.
This lad is ready to really rock Italy soon, I don't think he's a "flash" in the pan, as they say.

INTER - allt om världens vackraste lag
Here is some footage of him against Milan Primavera...nothing special here, but you can see he is strong, and has become a focal point of Inter primavera team.

He is still raw in talent, but he can only get better. I think those clips don't do him justice...for anybody wanting to see it, just double click on the image, and you get redirected to youtube.

Okaka and Barwuah to lead Italy's future front line...Now that would be insane!
