LEGALLY BLONDE Serie A presenter Diletta Leotta is loved by viewers but dubbed ‘nerd’ by pals for her degree in law

BLONDE bombshell Diletta Leotta is the stunning Serie A presenter for new sport streaming service DAZN.

And not only is she the face of the beautiful game - she's pretty good at playing it too.

Leotta, 27, from Catania in Italy - a port city on Sicily's east coast - has a degree in law from Luiss University in Rome and graduated in 2015.

Since then she has gone on to become arguably the most famous face in footie broadcasting on Italian TV, previously presenting Serie B coverage on Sky Sport.

Her beauty was recognised on a national scale ten years ago, when she won the "Miss Elegant" crown in the Miss Italy beauty pageant.

But it was when she moved to Rome at the age of 20 that a career in front of the camera looked destined to take off.

Leotta has a degree in law

Leotta was branded a 'nerd' by one of her former colleagues

She studied diction, signing and acting, according to nanopress.it, as well as squeezing in a law degree.

With her workaholic attitude, it is no surprise that fellow presenter Salvo La Rosa, who used to work alongside Leotta, joked she had "always been a nerd" - despite recently dazzling on the red carpet.

Leotta got her first gig in TV as a weathergirl and worked her way up from there, with La Rosa saying that for all her beauty, she matches it with "preparation, study and commitment".

Since then Leotta's fame has grown and grown - with her 3.5million Instagram followers are testament to that.

It has not come without its pitfalls though.

Leotta hit out at the sick hackers who posted naked photos of her online after an iCloud hack in 2017 - with Mario Balotelli among those leaping to her defence.

That, however, is firmly in the past now, with Leotta not only concentrating on covering football, and getting better at it too.

Leotta, who has dated former Juventus star Michele Paolucci, posted a video of herself doing kick-ups near a pool to the delight of fans.
