Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli has reportedly spent up to £750,000 on a new house to be built in Italy for him and his pregnant ex-girlfriend Raffaella Fico.
The 22-year-old, who is believed to have demanded a DNA test before rekindling his romance with Fico, is thought to have hired an architect to design a new home for the couple and their impending arrival, according to the Daily Mail.
The home is reportedly based in Brescia, which is close to the home of Balotelli's adoptive parents as well as the city's university.
Meanwhile, Balotelli has sparked controversy within Man City after storming down the tunnel when he was substituted in his side's 3-0 win over Sunderland.
