Mario Balotelli's future at Manchester City is in doubt once more this morning after the controversial Italian snubbed the club's FA Cup parade.
Balotelli was named man of the match after City beat Stoke to win their first trophy in 35 years 10 days ago.
Last sighting: Balotelli's final appearance for City was at Wembley"
Carlos Tevez was there to parade the FA Cup despite suggestions he, too, would be missing.
Tevez also issued a statement that said: 'In my mind, there was never a question as to whether I would be there. No one had to persuade me because I simply wouldn't have missed this event.'

There were conflicting stories coming from Eastlands as to why Balotelli had performed yet another flit back to his native Italy.

What does appear certain is that Balotelli did have the permission of his manager Roberto Mancini to miss the parade, something that will not have gone down well
with Cook - who wrote to all the players himself.
History: The streets of Manchester were packed to greet the City players (above) who delivered the club's first silverware for 35 years (below)
Belgium defender Vincent Kompany skipped a day’s training with his national team in order to attend, although Germany defender Jerome Boateng - linked with a move to Bayern Munich - was another unexplained absentee from the celebrations.
