Former Inter Milan striker Mario Balotelli has taken a swipe at Serie A standards.
Balotelli is weighing up his playing options after being released by Sion.
He told Controcalcio: "Last year I watched a couple of Serie A matches and not out of malice but I compared them to the matches that we did in Turkey. The level is almost higher in Turkey today than Serie A.
"Serie A is not a poor championship, but the level of the other championships is rising."
On the emergence of Saudi Arabia in the football market, he added: "I rejected a Chinese offer that was much higher than the Arab figures. I don't regret having rejected it, I preferred to play football and stay in Marseille. I don't know what I'll do in the future, but how can you say that someone goes to Arabia not for money? If they offered little money the players wouldn't go there."

I agree with him. Every Saudi move is about money. But the players should not be shy about it, after all football is business. For the club owners time is not an issue, but the footballers have limited time. They have to enjoy the game and yes make a lot of money from it while they can.
