Balotelli out for up to six weeks

Reuters - Wednesday 08 September 2010, 21:23

LONDON - Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli will miss up to six weeks with a knee injury, the Premier League club said on their website on Wednesday.

The 20-year-old Italian, who moved from Inter Milan in August, will undergo surgery after suffering the injury against Timisoara in Romania last month during a Europa League qualifier.
