Mario Balotelli has been accused of posting naked pictures of an ex-partner online.
The Italian striker has already been in the spotlight this week after a light-hearted post about the Manchester derby, but has now been forced to deny the claims.
“My client has been left severely traumatised,” the woman’s representative is quoted as saying. “She couldn’t believe it when she saw these intimate pictures had been posted online. She asked for them to be removed but they were still being shared.”
According to The Sun, the woman is in her forties and has a child.
A source at AC Milan, the club at which he is on loan at from Liverpool, insisted that Balotelli denied what the woman is alleging.
