Known as much for his off-the-field antics as his mercurial playing style, Balotelli's home was once set alight after fireworks were set off, while on another occasion he was spotted smoking in a train toilet.

TOM COLLOMOSSE AT VILLA PARK: It was while walking through Warsaw airport in September 2023 that Mail Sport was first alerted to what the football world thinks of Jhon Duran.

After all, clubs are hardly going to play it down when they spend £18million on a little-known footballer with limited senior experience. Yet a WhatsApp exchange with a prominent sporting director, who was working in Italy at the time but is now elsewhere, is worth recalling now.
