Mario Balotelli has officially taken the same number 45 that he wore with such distinction at Inter.
The Italian international, who signed on Friday and could make his home debut in the Monday night blockbuster against Liverpool, inherits the shirt after coming to an agreement with Greg Cunningham.
“I have worn the number all my football life and wanted to carry on here at City,” declared the Italian who has the number tattooed on his arm and who will face his first English press conference tomorrow afternoon.
