Everyone's favorite Italian striker, Mario Balotelli, is going to be a father, according to the AP.
Balotelli's former girlfriend, Raffaella Fico, a model, found out she was pregnant in May. Fico told Balotelli last week, the day before the striker scored two goals, taking Italy to the finals.
Fico told an Italian magazine how Balotelli took the news:
''...first he was silent. Then he said `you have given me the best news in the world.'''
The couple broke up at the end of April because of Balotelli's rumored affairs.
