London<\/strong>: Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has warned striker Mario Balotelli that he needs to change his attitude if he wants to continue playing with the English football club.<\/p>\n

The ultimatum comes after general secretary of world players’ union FIFPro, Theo van Seggelen, wrote on Twitter that the 21-year-old needed professional help for his disciplinary problems after the striker was sent off last weekend in the defeat to Arsenal.<\/p>\n

After the volatile striker was sent off for two bookable offences, a furious Mancini Friday said he would probably try to sell the player in the summer transfer window. <\/p>\n

Balotelli has since apologised and stated his commitment to the club, a gesture which Mancini has accepted but the City manager indicated actions would speak louder than words.<\/p>\n

“We are happy but it doesn’t change the situation. If he wants to stay he should change his mind. I spoke with Mario a lot of times about this. I don’t think he can stay here for 10 years together with me. This is impossible,” Mancini was quoted as saying by ESPN Soccernet.<\/p>\n

“But if tomorrow, or in two or three years, he changes managers or squads it is important he changes his behaviour. He has a lot of quality but he can lose it with his attitude.” (IANS)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
