AC MILAN VICE-President Paolo Berlusconi has been filmed referring to new signing Mario Balotelli as “il negretto della famiglia” — translated as “the family’s little n*****”.
The video of Berlusconi, brother of former Italian prime minister Silvio, was shot before Balotelli’s debut with AC Milan against Udinese in which he scored two goals.
“He’s a wild one. All the young ladies are invited as well — you can even have a chance to meet the president,” he said, referring to his party-loving billionaire brother who owns AC Milan.
The video was posted on the website of La Repubblica daily.
The club has taken a stand against racism after the team stormed off the pitch in a friendly last month because of racist chants from a group of fans aimed at Ghanaian striker Kevin-Prince Boateng.
Balotelli was born of Ghanaian parents in Italy, then put in foster care and adopted by an Italian couple. He became an Italian citizen when he turned 18.
The Croatian football federation was fined last year after hundreds of Croatian fans hurled racial abuse at Balotelli during the European Championships.
