Italian soccer player Mario Balotelli is more than a soccer player, he is a stylish character.

Both his style and character are now reflected in the new junior soccer boots he launched recently. Take a closer look for yourself at his new Puma design and you'll find a fuzzy mohawk on the heel of the cleats.

The boots, called the Puma evoPOWER, feature his famous "Why Always Me?" slogan on the back. Balotelli, who visited old Manchester City teammates on Sunday and didn't play in Liverpool's victory over Bournemouth on Monday, hasn't featured much on the pitch over the last year. Maybe an adult size boot with a mohawk would help. 

The shoes are $50, while this crazy soccer ball with a mohawk is $18.

Never change, Balo.
