Man City striker Scapuzzi: Being closer to family will help AC Milan's Balotelli

Manchester City striker Luca Scapuzzi is happy for former teammate Mario Balotelli over his move to AC Milan.

Scapuzzi actually signed for City after being released by Milan 18 months ago and is currently on-loan at Serie BVarese.

"We had a good relationship because obviously we were the only Italians. I've always got on well with him, he is very nice. I'm very different from him, but I speak only of a character level .

"He's very happy to be at Milan and he wanted to join AC Milan for some time. He' s back close to his family, I think this will help him to give his best.

"I do not hear from him because Mario's telephone number changes every three days. On the phone now I have six to seven of his old numbers."
