Mario BalotelliAC Milan loanee, Mario Balotelli, reportedly had his driver’s licence revoked after being caught speeding near to his home in Brescia, according to Giornale di Brescia.

The report adds that Balotelli told police, “I’m sorry, I didn’t notice” following the offence.

Balotelli, 25, returned to the San Siro last month, just one year after leaving the club to join Liverpool.

Upon his return, the controversial striker reportedly agreed a behavioural clause, which included a ban on ‘extravagant’ haircuts and visiting nightclubs.

Meanwhile, despite his Man of the Match performance in AC Milan’s 3-2 win over fourth division side Modenna in a friendly on Thursday, Coach Sinisa Mihajlovic has told Balotelli he is overweight and must lose three kilograms.

The player who scored the opener, provided an assist and won a penalty for the Rossoneri isn’t fully fit yet and has more work to do according to his boss.

“He’s not played for a while and he still has to improve,” Mihajlovic said La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“He’s training well and his physical tests are satisfactory, but he’s three kilogrammes overweight: he’s on a diet and when he’s ready he will play.”
