Balotelli arrives Liverpool training in £240,000 Ferrari

Mario Balotelli drove to Liverpool training on Thursday in his £240,000 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta that has been shipped over from Italy.

The 24-year-old has now been reunited with his beloved supercar, which was seen arriving at Liverpool’s Melwood training base as Balotelli and his team-mates prepare for Saturday’s Premier League trip to West Ham.

The Italy forward joined Brendan Rodgers side in a £16million switch from AC Milan in August and he will have been buoyed by the fact his luxurious vehicle has finally made the same move.

Balotelli’s love of cars is legendary and many of his infamous scrapes and japes have involved one of his motors.

The Italy star’s most famous vehicle was probably the camouflage £160,000 Bentley GP in which he was spotted in Manchester. His white Maserati was also ticketed in the city centre.

Earlier this year, his former fiancee – according to some reports – Fanny Neguesha posted a video on Instagram showcasing Balotelli’s love of fast cars.

She also put up a picture of some car keys, including those to the Ferrari, a Lamborghini and an Audi.

Balotelli is motoring on the pitch after opening his account with a goal against Ludogorets in Liverpool’s 2-1 Champions League win on Tuesday.
