Jose Mourinho: Mario Balotelli Once Skipped Meeting with Me to Watch F1 GP

If you needed a reminder that Mario Balotelli can be hard to manage, his former boss at Inter Milan provides it with a tale of how the striker once missed a meeting with him to go and watch Formula 1.

Mourinho tells Clare Balding that he had scheduled the meeting in advance, but when the time came and Balotelli had not arrived, Balotelli picked up his phone at trackside and insisted that while he could have a meeting with Mourinho any day, Formula 1 only rolled into town once a year.

The current Chelsea manager insists he laughs about the incident now—but you can be pretty sure he didn’t at the time.

The full interview with Mourinho on BT Sport is set for Christmas Day.
