MARIO BALOTELLI was lucky to escape serious injury after crashing his £100,000 Audi Q8 into a wall.
The terrifying accident, which nobody else is believed to have been involved in, happened at 8.30pm on Thursday in the Italian’s hometown of Brescia.
SportMediaset are claiming that the 33-year-old former Manchester City striker allegedly then refused to take a breathalyser test after crashing his black motor into a wall.
According to the Italian newspaper Fatto Quotidiano, the ex-Liverpool ace lost control of his Audi Q8 and smashed it into a wall.
The impact of the collision forced the air bags to go off as medics quickly raced to the scene after being called.
Balotelli, who has previously dated Belgian model Fanny Neguesha and was recently spotted with a beautiful mysterious blonde, managed to climb out of the wreckage and was then attended to by paramedics after lying on the ground.
Then SportMediaset say that local cops tried to give Balotelli a breathalyser test, but the Italian international declined.
The news outlet then states that led to police confiscating Balotelli’s driving licence.
The 2012 Premier League title winner’s brother, Enock Barwuah, is then said to have arrived on the scene of the crash after returning from training with his local football team and then took Balotelli home.
Balotelli, who now plays for Turkish side Adana Demirspor, is back home in Italy while he recovers from an injury.
The controversial ace has just recently returned to Turkish Super Lig side Adana Demirspor after previously spending the 2021/22 season there.
Balotelli, who recently sold his fleet of supercars including a Ferrari and Lamborghini after losing his passion for them, left City for AC Milan in 2013 but surprisingly returned to the Prem a year later with Liverpool.
He struggled to impress at Anfield, scoring just once in 16 games, before going back to Milan on loan.
Balotelli did enjoy a three-year spell at Nice after leaving Liverpool in 2014, making 76 appearances and scoring 43 goals before he moved across the French Riviera to rivals Marseille for a season.
