Sergio Aguero has alleged in his official biography that former Manchester City team-mate Mario Balotelli would jokingly say f*** the police when they came calling for him at the training ground.

In his official biography 'Born to Rise', which is not out until next Thursday, the Argentine striker writes that the Italian, who is now at Liverpool, was "always seeking attention".

Aguero writes: “He [Balotelli] would say things like, ‘The police have just followed me all the way to the training ground and want to talk to me,’ and I’d say, ‘No wonder! You’ve probably just broke the speed limit or bumped into somebody!

“Sometimes he’d get a message from reception saying the police wanted to speak to him and he’s say ‘F*** the police!’

“Then he’d say that he may have driven past the police pretty quickly and that could be the reason. He was always seeking attention.”
