Balotelli quizzed over Mafia links
September 8, 2011

Mario Balotelli's turbulent Manchester City career has taken another unsteady turn with the striker ordered by Italian police to explain his links to the country's Mafia.

Balotelli, who has courted controversy since making a £24 million switch from Inter Milan last summer, has been called as a witness by prosecutors in Naples for an anti-Mafia investigation that is going to trial next week.

The forward was given a guided tour of a notorious crime-ridden district of Naples by Mario Iorio, a catering entrepreneur who has been charged with money laundering as part of an ongoing crime investigation. Balotelli will face stiff questioning on his links to Iorio and regarding his visit to the Scampia area when he appears before prosecutors on September 15.

"There is nothing to worry about. I am calm. I had no idea who the people were showing me around Scampia," Balotelli said when asked about the court visit.

"That day there were loads of people around me. I'm sad the effect this may have on my family. I just wanted to see what the area was like as I had seen it in the film Gomorrah."

• Balotelli makes peace with Ferdinand (http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/972317/mario-balotelli-makes-peace-with-rio-ferdinand?cc=5739)
Two fire engines were sent to the home of Italy international Balotelli in Mottram St Andrew, Macclesfield, in the early hours of Saturday morning after the alarm was raised. They found a fire in the bathroom on the first floor of the detached property.
Four firefighters arrived wearing breathing apparatus and used two hose reel water jets to douse the flames, and a large fan was deployed to clear smoke.
A spokesman for Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "Crews managed to put the fire out within half an hour of arriving but remained at the scene until 2.45am to prevent any possible flare-ups.
"Smoke alarms were fitted at the property and the occupiers were able to get out unharmed. The fire was caused by a firework.''
The cause of the blaze is being examined by fire investigators and police but is not being treated as suspicious.

Mario Balotelli (http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/mario-balotelli)'s penchant for eccentric behaviour continued on Thursday when the Manchester City (http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/manchestercity) striker walked into a local college and asked a student where the toilets were located.
Balotelli, who featured in City's Carling Cup tie with Liverpool on Wednesday evening, parked his Bentley outside Xaverian College at around 1.30pm before walking into the canteen and making the inquiry.
After using the facilities the 21-year-old Italy international went into the staff room to speak to teachers before spending 20 minutes walking round the college campus accompanied by students.
Eighteen-year-old Edward Gasson was sitting in the canteen when Balotelli arrived out of the blue. "Balotelli parked his Bentley outside, then came in and was asking where the toilets were, then he went to the teachers' staff room," he told the Manchester Evening News.
"After that he was just walking round campus like he owned the place and everyone was following him around.
"I'm a City fan so it was amazing to see him but it was a bit ridiculous for him to come here – you would never expect it to happen."
A spokesperson for the Catholic college said: "Xaverian was delighted to receive a surprise visit from Mario, who chatted to some of the students at one of Manchester's most successful colleges.
"We weren't able to enrol him on any courses but he is welcome back anytime."
This is not the first occasion Balotelli has drawn attention for controversial behaviour. In 2010 he drove through an open security gate at a women's prison in Italy to look around, while in October he set his house on fire after letting off fireworks in his bathroom.
He also visited a school in Manchester last year to confront a youth about bullying a fellow pupil.

[MannyIsGod]

I think thats cool.

Why would it be controversial?

[resistanze]

I think thats cool.

Why would it be controversial?

If a man stoping to a leak doesn't outrage you, I don't know what will!

[Muser]

Whatever he does is going to be blown out of proportion. I'd feel sorry for him if it wasn't for the millions of £ and Bentleys he's got.

[DAF86]

I think thats cool.

It isn't controversial, it is just something that famous people don't do.

[Libri]

"We weren't able to enrol him on any courses but he is welcome back anytime to leave his shit."

fixed

[ginobili's bald spot]

wtf are you guys hating on balotelli? He's hilarious.

[MannyIsGod]

It isn't controversial, it is just something that famous people don't do.

Yeah - the article implied it was controversial but the Brits use their language differently than we do (ie cynical) so maybe thats it. Or maybe the article was written by an idiot. Either way, I think it was cool.

[Muser]

It's the Guardian, so yeah.

[DAF86]

Probably the most overrated player right now.

[ALVAREZ6]

I never understood any hype he got, he is not that great. IDK why Roberto Mancini played both Dzeko and Balotelli, 2 big stiffs, during last game when he has Tevez back available. Not bringing him in until there were about 15 minutes left was a mistake, and now his stupid ass is paying for it by trailing United. I know I sound like a homer, but imo Tevez or Aguero should always be in the game for a more diverse attack. They are better are moving forward and controlling the ball, naturally, compared to the other strikers on the team.

[ALVAREZ6]

lmao I forgot half of the shit he's pulled in only 2 years at the club :lol

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/1046633/man-city:-mario-balotelli-controversies?cc=5901

some of my favorites:

CAR CRASH (August 2010): Just days after signing for City, Balotelli hits the headlines after crashing his Audi R8 en route to the club's training ground. Balotelli is found to be carrying £5,000 in cash at the time of the accident and when police ask why, he reportedly replies: "Because I am rich.'' :lmao

WOMEN'S PRISON (October 2010): Mario Balotelli, sidelined after knee surgery, is questioned by police after driving his Mercedes into the grounds of Brescia women's prison.

great behind the wheel, someone should teach this stupid n!g how to drive

DART-THROWING INCIDENT (March 2011): Balotelli again hits trouble after it emerges he threw a dart at a City youth-team player. No one was hurt in the incident and he escapes punishment.

BACK-HEEL BLUNDER (July 2011): Balotelli is immediately substituted by an enraged Mancini after performing a pirouette and back-heeling wide when clean through on goal in a pre-season friendly against the Los Angeles Galaxy.
:lmao do you guys remember this play?

ESCORT (April 2012): A national newspaper reports that Mario Balotelli has been visiting the same prostitute allegedly used by Wayne Rooney two years ago.



He's definitely one of the dumbest athletes in the world, will never reach his potential.
