Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli will sport both his family names on his Italy shirt during the Euro Cup 2012, starting on June 8.
UEFA's official tournament list shows that the 21-year-old forward has registered 'Barwuah Balotelli' as his shirt name, Sports24 reports.
Balotelli was born in Sicily as Mario Barwuah to parents of Ghanaian descent. He took the name Balotelli from his foster parents in Brescia, who brought him up after he became sick as a child.
He uses just the Balotelli name on his shirt when playing for Manchester City.
