Mario Balotelli 'buys entire pub a drink before £200 midnight mass donation'

Controversial Manchester City star Mario Balotelli enjoyed another late night before a big game - but this time it was at midnight mass, after enjoying a booze-free trip to a local pub and treating everyone to a round of drinks.

The Italian was joined by his girlfriend Raffaella Fico at St John's church in Chorlton, Manchester, on Christmas Eve and he shocked onlookers by putting £200 on the collection plate as he left.

Balotelli was then asked by the reverend if he would join the church in providing a drop-in Christmas dinner for the homeless on Christmas Day.

'Nobody could believe it when he walked in,' an onlooker said.

'The last thing anyone expected was a big celebrity like him turning up for the service but he was very polite and charming and didn't draw attention to himself.'

Balotelli has become something of a cult figure since moving to England from Italy.

He has been involved in training ground punch-ups, arguments with the manager and even tussles with playing bibs.

There were even rumours last week on Twitter that he was driving around Manchester dressed as Santa Claus throwing money out of his car.

While this speculation turned out to be untrue, Balotelli did show his generous side by putting £1,000 behind the bar at the Tudor pub in Peel Hall earlier on Christmas Eve.

He chatted to drinkers and had photos taken before then heading off to the church service.

How much do you know about Mario's antics? Take the quiz :)

10 out of 10 :D

I don't get that quiz? Do we select the ones we think are true, or the ones we think are rumours? :dunno:

Like Bruce Wayne, Mario Balotelli's activities away from his day job are shrouded in mystery. It's hard to know where truth blends into fiction. However, his shenanigans have been documented in enough detail that we can confidently pick out 10 widely-held rumours about the striker. Can you?

Mario Balotelli 'banned from returning to his home'

Manchester City's controversial striker Mario Balotelli has been banned from returning to his £3million mansion by his landlord.

The volatile Italian has been living in a city centre hotel since a firework was set off in his bathroom, starting a fire that caused significant damage to the property.

Now the 21-year-old has been told he cannot return to his home until he settles a bill, which has run into tens of thousands of pounds, for the damage he has caused since moving in. The sum includes fire damage and the wrecking of expensive dining room chairs.

However, Balotelli is disputing the bill and is refusing to pay up, which has led the landlord to start legal proceedings in a bid to recover money from the Premier League star.

The City man had only been in the Mottram St Andrew house for a month when the fire brigade were called on the eve of his team's game against rivals Manchester United last October.

A Manchester City spokesman said: 'Mario feels that he is being ripped off. The club is aware of the matter and we are backing Mario fully in this.'

Balotelli has previous form with fireworks as he received a police caution for setting off £1,500 worth of pyrotechnics in a flat he rented in the city.

That landlord needs to cheer up a bit.

Not in the squad today because of a virus. That does nothing for his superhuman reputation :(

He created the virus and injected it in to himself so that we could be the first to create the anitbodies and therefore become stronger than us mere mortals in the longer run :thumbup:

Today's "Bits and bobs" in the Guardian daily football email (the Fiver):

Mario Balotelli will miss Manchester City's FA Cup third-round ding-dong with Manchester United due to ankle knack. The Fiver would like to believe it was caused while free-running through the lions' enclosure at Chester zoo, but we can't say for sure.

Anyone seen the videos on YouTube of the City players decorating Christmas cake? Mario puts a party popper on his as well as a plastic Santa figure which he dropped on the floor and then put straight on the cake lol

Edit: Here's the video
