Mario Balotelli

[Damocles]

we might see a better more mature mario next season given the news he is set to become a daddy

You know this is rubbish based on the fact that the girl he used to date a few months back has put a bit of weight on

<a class="postlink" href="http://www.football-italia.net/20681/balotelli-set-be-dad" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.football-italia.net/20681/ba ... set-be-dad</a>

Manchester City and Italy striker Mario Balotelli is set to become a father, ex-girlfriend Raffaella Fico has revealed.

“I phoned him before the Germany game and told him I was expecting his child,” Fico told Chi magazine. “After a brief moment of silence, he told me that I had given him the best news in the world.”

Balotelli and Fico had been in a relationship until they separated on April 29. “I found out in mid-May,” she added.

“I went to a chemist outside of Milan and bought a pregnancy test. I found out that I was expecting, but I only told my mother and brother.”

Given the news, the couple are set to try to patch up their relationship. “Mario and I are rebuilding,” she continued.

“Mario has never stopped loving me. He’ll be a playful father and a sweet, loving and kind partner.

“Those who think that I would have wanted to trap a rich footballer will have to think again. I do not need the money.

“The truth is that we both wanted this child. He told me at Christmas that he wanted to marry me and have kids – I accepted.

“What happened then happened, but one thing is for certain – the child will have the Balotelli surname with pride.”

My mistake, the only thing I'd seen in the press was pictures of Raffaella with a bit of weight on here and every tabloid on the planet speculating; wasn't aware that were any quotes.

After the semi, he ran over to his Mum, but his Father wasn't at that game. He had dedicated the Final to his father, who was coming to see him play for the first time at the Euros and so went over to him. It was missed by the TV.

Anyway, it was clear that it bothered him, he was professional and worked his arse off all game, but it wasn't to be. Prandelli explained how hurt he was and that this will be a learning experience for him. He is 22 and he turned out to be the revelation of one of the top teams in Europe in HIS FIRST MAJOR TOURNAMENT!

Well done, Mario! You will be welcomed back to Manchester with open arms. But first, take a break and relax a bit.....YOU DESERVE IT!

OK thats great then!! All I saw was him running off the field and he kind of pushed a guy out of the way. My initial thought was he was doing a runner into the locker room. So he was only running to his family.......

Is there any footage/photos of this? Need to shut a couple of haters up in the office.

tell them to fuck off. That should do the trick. If not, just mention the fat scouse granny shaggers performance in an englend shirt.

I think every City fan can be proud of Mario. He wears his heart on his sleeve I for one see that as a good thing in any man or woman. Well done Mario.

Very touching, along with the images of Prandelli speaking to Mario after the match. What a lot Mario's achieved already and what a lot more he could achieve yet.
