Manchester City striker Mario
Balotelli sees himself as a future Ballon d'Or
winner.
Balotelli finished ahead of Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere for
the Turin sports newspaper's Golden Boy award, and reckons he was a
deserving winner.
The 20-year-old Balotelli, who joined City in the summer from Inter
Milan, hopes this award will be the first of many as he targets
domestic and European success in 2011.
"My aim is that this prize will, in the near future, transform
itself into the Golden Ball Award," he said.
"To have won this award is a good omen to achieve that."
Balotelli has big ambitions for next year.
"All I ask for is two things: to win the Premier
League, in order to continue with the tradition I had at
Inter of winning three consecutive league titles, and to clinch the
Europa League - a trophy that I have not yet won,
and a competition where we are considered favourites," said
Balotelli.
Win BPL? Impossible sial unless Man U, Arsenal and Chelsea sell
all of star studded players to other clubs.
Europa League? Possible. If they perform well, potential to win
it bahx.
