'We're always at it' - Boateng's missus reveals the reason behind his injuries

An over-active sex life and a career in football don’t mix well according to the AC Milan midfielder’s girlfriend.

SEX BANS ARE not unheard of in professional sport and if comments by the girlfriend of Kevin-Prince Boateng are to be believed, AC Milan boss Massimiliano Allegri might have to think about slapping one on the midfielder soon.

The former Spurs and Portsmouth player, who decided to retire from international football with Ghana in November, is currently sidelined after picking up a thigh injury in the Milan derby and the Serie A holders are expected to be without the 24-year-old for up to a month.

“Boateng has sustained a muscular lesion in his left thigh and the estimated time of recovery is around four weeks, unless there are complications,” read a statement from the club.

The man who did this when Milan won the league last season has been seeing Melissa Satta (see pic below) since October after her five-year relationship with ex-Milan striker Christian Vieri ended and the Sports Illustrated model believes that the amount of action he gets in the bedroom has a negative effect on his fitness.

The reason why he is always injured is because we have sex 7-10 times a week,” Satta said on SuperSport.com.

While she didn’t back up her theory with any hard scientific evidence, it has to be up there alongside Mario Balotelli’s grass allergy as one of the more original excuses for being unable to perform on the pitch.
