His car impounded 27 times, fined £100,000 in one MONTH, blazing rows with Mancini and the story behind THAT shirt... a former Man City kit man lifts the lid on Mario Balotelli's wild ride at the Etihad

A former Manchester City kitman has revealed some hilarious antics from Mario Balotelli's stint at the club, including the backstory to the Italian's infamous 'Why Always Me?' shirt.

Balotelli, who now plays for Swiss Super League club Sion, spent three years in Manchester and became renowned for his boisterous acts both on and off the pitch.

From setting off fireworks inside in his own house to a long list of unpaid parking fines, the Italian was about as unpredictable as they come.

And, on a recent podcast, even more details about the striker's habits in Manchester were revealed - including the story surrounding his celebration against Man United.
