Man City’s Balotelli to undergo knee surgery

MANCHESTER, England (AP)—Manchester City forward Mario Balotelli will be sidelined for up to six weeks after the club confirmed he will undergo knee surgery.
City said the 20-year-old signing from Inter Milan had cheap nfl jerseys
flown back to Milan for treatment, and will miss crucial Premier League games against Arsenal and Chelsea as well as a Europa League group match against Juventus.
Balotelli tore his lateral meniscus on his debut for City, only six days after his 22.5 million pounds ($35 million) move from Inter.
The Italy international came on as a second-half Indianapolis Colts jersey
substitute and scored the winning goal in the Europa League tie against Timisoara on Aug. 19, but limped off in injury time.
Balotelli has had an eventful time since arriving in England. On Aug. 28, Greater Manchester Police confirmed the striker emerged unscathed from a car crash when his Audi A8 collided with another vehicle.
City manager Roberto Mancini is estimated to have spent 115 million pounds ($178 million) in the offseason, bringing the likes of Balotelli, Yaya Toure and David Silva to the club, which finished fifth in the Premier League last season and missed out on Champions League Minnesota Vikings jersey
qualification.
Mancini’s team has made a mixed start to the season, beating Liverpool 3-0 at home but losing 1-0 away at Sunderland in its last match.
