If we sign Balotelli and Gai Assulin this week i would be delighted if that concluded our business for this window. If we were to sign an additional CB i would explode!
Boateng, age: 21
Kolarov, age: 23
Yaya, age: 27
Silva, age: 24
Balotelli, age: 19
Assulin, age: 19

The age of the players we are buying is ridiculus! with the exception of Yaya in 7 years time our team could feature all of these players still! mmm exciting
 
From Tuttomercato, apparently reading between the lines Mario stuck his passport in Roberto Baggio's luggage and sent it on ahead to Toronto lol

Tuttomercato said:
That is between Balotelli Inter was a love never born. Goals and play baby phenomenon has never been enough to make him one of the symbols of the whole winning the last few years, mainly due to behavior over the lines that always undermined the patience to first Moratti and the fans then.
The last chapter of this story high voltage was scritoo a couple of days ago. Inter had to go to Toronto to face Panathinaikos in the friendly played at night. The Nerazzurri thought they could count on the support of Balotelli, still in effect an Inter player. Thought, yeah, why Mario had his last stunt in Serbian. The passport had been sent along with the luggage in Dallas, the next stage of the Inter American withdrawal, it is impossible to travel with friends in Canada. Balotelli was then brought directly to Texas, with a temporary travel document prepared with the help of the Italian consul in Philadelphia.

Mario Balotelli is demanding an astonishing £180,000-a-week plus image rights to sign for Manchester City from Inter Milan, according to a well placed Soccernet source.

Mario Balotelli: The teenager is making big demands
The striker, who turns 20 in a few days time, values himself highly and is clearly keen to take advantage of City's renowned wealth and ability to pay out higher salaries than most clubs.

But the club are baulking at Balotelli's demands, according to a Soccernet source close to the deal, who said: "I have heard the figure of £180,000-a-week, and when he was asked whether that would include his image rights, his representatives said no.

"We all know City are paying well over the odds in transfer fees and salaries, but this is an enormous salary for the player.

"If the sum being demanded is accurate, then it is stupid money, and you can see why City are not paying it, because there are some really big established international stars in their team who would be raising an eyebrow and asking for more money for themselves.

"In my view this is the reason for the hold up in the talks, because Inter also want a massive fee, so the total investment is just huge."

With the Inland Revenue also looking very closely at image rights any club must be very careful about signing any player which such add-ons to their contracts - another reason why City may be wary about accepting such demands.
