To be heard in the Bastoni case: what the Milan investigation found

  • In a chat, Bastoni’s message was allegedly sent during a Milana investigation into an escort network for the commission of illegal acts.
  • In the intercepted messages, it was written that in 2020 the player’s agent would be traveling by transport late at night.
  • The investigation also suggests that the figures in the chats, which appear to be like codes, were used to refer to the escort agency and to cover up the details.

According to L'Équipe, La Gazzetta dello Sport, and La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Alessandro Bastoni, the Inter defender, is said to have been asked to provide his testimony in the Milan investigation concerning escort services. In the intercepted chats, it was mentioned that the parties involved were allegedly discussing the purchase of escort services that were allegedly intended for a minor, whose age was 17 at the time.

Meanwhile, the investigation notes that the figures in the messages, in 2020, in a chat with the agent “Made” referring to Bastoni, were allegedly used to hide the details of the transaction. In other words, the chat contained a code that allowed the parties to mask what was actually being discussed. The investigation also claims that the agent, in the chats, was allegedly referring to the delivery of the “escort” services.

According to the report, Bastoni’s lawyer Salvatore Scutto said that he has been following the case and that there is no evidence of any wrongdoing. In his words, there were no illegal acts, and the player did not participate in any criminal activity.

The investigation also involves the agent from “Chinizzello-Balsamo,” who is said to have been in charge of arranging the meetings. In the publications, it is stated that the services were allegedly provided in the evenings, and that the agent was allegedly responsible for the delivery. It is also noted that the parties involved allegedly used coded language to conceal the details of the transactions.

In turn, Bastoni is said to have been asked to clarify the circumstances of the case, and the investigation is reportedly focusing on the player’s role in the chats. The publications also claim that the player’s lawyer has requested that the investigation be carried out thoroughly and that the evidence be assessed objectively.

Meanwhile, the publications note that the investigation is ongoing and that the parties involved may face legal consequences. The case is expected to be further clarified in the coming weeks.
