MILAN, Italy -- Mario Balotelli's agent will consider urging the Manchester City striker to leave England if he continues to get into trouble with the footballing authorities.
Balotelli faces a four-match ban after being charged by the English Football Association on Monday with violent conduct for appearing to stomp on Scott Parker's head during City's 3-2 win against Tottenham at the weekend.
In an interview with Italian radio station Radio Radio on Tuesday, Balotelli's agent Mino Raiola claims the charge is unfair and if he discovers "something strange" he has a "duty to search for another club."
The 21-year-old Balotelli has rarely been out of the headlines since joining from Inter Milan before the 2010-11 season.
