Italian football player gone to Manchester City, Mario Balotelli, is making a name for himself in his new home town, more off the field than on, it seems.
We’ll get to his operation on his injury later, but when he and his Audi R8 were involved in an accident, the police turned up to find the Italian star with 6,000 euros in his pocket (or do they mean pounds?).
The accident was relatively innocuous, with Balotelli coming out all in one piece, but the question from the police was more about the large amount of cash to be found on the former FC Internazionale player.
Balotelli’s response was apparently one of the most elementary: “Because I’m rich.
