Football bad boy Mario Balotelli has recalled the day Jose Mourinho threw him out of the team bus after a heated disagreement.

Mourinho managed a young super Mario during their time together at Inter Milan, where the latter spent more than three years.

But like everywhere Balotelli has played, the Italian had his fair share of troubles during his spell at the San Siro.

The troubles include a run-in he once had with Mourinho, which saw the legendary manager lose his patience with the forward and eventually threw him out of the team bus.

Mourinho is understood to have told Balotelli to get off the bus midway through the journey.

With no other option, the striker alighted and made his way back home in a car.
