Mario Balotelli got his career back on track last season, scoring 17 goals in 28 appearances for Nice. Things went so well at the French club that Balotelli has decided to stay, and Nice have decided they want him back, with the two agreeing to a new one-year contract.
When Balotelli went to Nice before last season, it looked like potentially his last chance in a major European league. His rough previous few seasons left him with little interest, but he and Nice agreed to a one-year deal. He needed to play well, or he most likely would have never been seen from at a high level again.
