Vieira and Riviere discuss Mario Balotelli's future at Nice

Jean-Pierre Riviere announced his resignation as Nice president during a press conference held on Saturday morning. Speaking about the future of Balotelli, Riviere said: "It's still a big question mark".

Nice manager Patrick Vieira, however, hits that the player could return to training with the senior team: "I have to put him in the best conditions but he has to tell us what he wants to do".

Meantime Mancini comments on his future with Italy National team: "We spoke on Christmas, Mario is ok, he is improving but he needs to play and score. He doesn't need anything else".​
