Adana Demirspor striker Balotelli on car crash: Why talk about this?!

Adana Demirspor striker Mario Balotelli has assured fans he's fine after a car crash in Brescia.

Balotelli refused to take a breathalyser so his driver's licence was confiscated by local police.

The former AC Milan striker said: “I just crashed my car and then went home in another car.

“I thought that creating a big fuss over something like this had gone out of fashion. I can understand if others were involved, or if somebody got hurt, but I just crashed the car and went home."

He continued: “There are a billion problems and the only thing I see in the newspapers is my accident. There wouldn't have been an issue if I didn't have comprehensive insurance, but thankfully I did.

“Instead of talking about important issues, they talk about this. Unbelievable,"
