Ah, Mario

Sit down, we’ve some shocking news.

Mario Balotelli has got himself into trouble again.im_shockedOkay, so maybe it isn’t a surprise that the ‘striker’ has found himself in a spot of bother again, but, even by Balotelli’s standards, this takes some doing.

Mario moved back to AC Milan on-loan two weeks ago, ending an unhappy, and unproductive, year with Liverpool, and spoke of being a changed man upon returning to his former club.

Milan, wisely, decided to cover themselves by inserting some behavioural clauses in the 25 year old’s contract.

The club have banned the player from sporting extravagant haircuts, smoking, attending nightclubs and wearing loud clothing.

We’re not sure if speeding and having his driving licence revoked is included in the clauses, but Milan’s lawyers should probably take a look at the fine print.AC Milan v Empoli FC - Serie AAccording to reports in Italy, Balotelli was caught by a speeding camera driving over 90 kmph in a residential area, with a speed limit of 50 kmph, in his Lamborghini.

The incident occurred last week, near Balotelli’s home in Brescia and, in accordance with Italian law, the player’s driving licence immediately revoked.

When stopped by police officers, Mario reportedly said: “I’m sorry, but I hadn’t realised (that he had been driving so fast).”

Vintage Mario.

Whatever happens, Balotelli should seek a refund, because this camouflage car clearly isn’t working.Screen-Shot-2015-08-12-at-13.10.24H/T ESPN.
