Mario Balotelli: 'I'm ready to prove my genius'

Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli has claimed that he is ready to prove his 'genius' after thanking the club's supporters for a banner in his honour.

Fans of the Anfield side recently unveiled a banner that read 'Nothing to declare except my genius' in Italian, in homage to Balotelli, and the former AC Milan forward thanked the supporters for their backing with a post on Instagram.
