Mario Balotelli admits to finding love with girlfriend Fanny Neguesha

AC Milan striker Mario Balotelli has admitted that he has fallen in love with new girlfriend Fanny Neguesha.

The 22-year-old's former manager Roberto Mancini previously claimed that Balotelli's form on the pitch would improve if he settled down in his personal life.

Since moving to Italy from Manchester City, it appears that the controversial frontman has found a balance due to his relationship with the 22-year-old model.

"Am I in love? Yes, but I am not good at talking about it," the Daily Star quotes Balotelli as saying. "I am shy."

The couple have been together for six months.
