Mario Balotelli, the AC Milan striker, has been featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated with the title “The Most Interesting Man in the World.” This recognition is considered prestigious, especially for a non-American footballer. The magazine highlights Balotelli’s status as the face of Milan, his friendships with the Pope and Italian ministers, his experiences with racism, and his representation of today’s Europe. Balotelli, born in Italy to Ghanaian parents, is also described as “the best young striker in football today.”
