French club Olympique de Marseille have caught the attention of Ghanaian football and music fans after using Kofi Mole’s song ‘Balotelli’ in a video celebrating the striker’s goals for the club.

The club shared a compilation of Balotelli’s goals during his spell at the Stade Vélodrome, with the Ghanaian musician’s song providing the soundtrack.

The choice of music has sparked interest because the song, titled ‘Balotelli’, was released by Kofi Mole and draws inspiration from the Italian striker’s name.

Three-year-old soccer prodigy reportedly removed from league after complaints

Balotelli joined Marseille in January 2019 after leaving OGC Nice and enjoyed a productive spell, scoring eight goals in 15 Ligue 1 appearances.

The former Italy international became a fan favourite during his short stay in France, with his goals and celebrations making him a memorable figure at the club.
