Italian national team assistant coach: Balotelli lost a lot of weight, he was a surprise

Live Bar January 30 , Balotelli returned to the Italian national team for a three-day training camp after more than three years, and the national team assistant coach Lombardo said he was a surprise.

Lombardo was also an Italian international during his time as a player and currently serves as assistant coach of the Italian national team. Lombardo said: "Balotelli has lost a lot of weight, I don't know if it's because he has COVID-19 or other reasons. I haven't seen him for a long time, especially now that he's playing outside of Italy, it's even harder to keep an eye on his progress. To be honest, I didn't expect to see him in such good shape, it was a surprise. ”
