Former Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli may have fallen a victim of the latest racial abuse after the Italian was booked in a French League 1 match ‘for complaining about’ racial chants from the fans.
Balotelli who now plays for French League 1 outfit Nice had to endure the 3-2 defeat to Dijon but his tribulations did not end at that. The former AC Milan man had his attention drawn by the opposition fans who he said were making ‘monkey noises’ directed towards him.
