Mario Balotelli faces fine for curfew breach

Mario Balotelli is reportedly facing a £150,000 fine for breaching a Manchester City curfew on Saturday night.

Balotelli ignored strict rules ahead of City's clash with Chelsea tonight and stayed out until the early hours of Sunday morning, according to the Daily Star.

The paper reports that the former Inter Milan star enjoyed a curry with friends before staging a mock sword fight with a rolling pin.

The latest controversy comes after the striker allegedly caused damage to the Anfield dressing rooms following his sending off against Liverpool last month.
