Atalanta boss Gian Piero Gasperini is sorry seeing Mario Balotelli struggling at Brescia.

Tomorrow marks the first time Atalanta and Brescia meet in Serie A since 2004.

Balotelli is unlikely to feature and Gasperini said, “I don't follow everything, but at the start of the year it seemed a good fit for him, Brescia and the national team.

“He's always had great quality, but sometimes he's not been able to show it or he's never managed to get the best out of himself."
