The scandal involving the escort ring in Milan is growing in scale, as new revelations bring to light an increasing number of footballers reportedly connected to the case.
Investigations are uncovering more information, mentioning dozens of players from top clubs, which heightens the interest and seriousness of the matter.
More than 194,000 euros are reported to have been paid into the coffers of the event company that organized the parties in Milan.
The names of the footballers have remained confidential in the case file, as there are no charges against them.
It has also not been clarified how many of them used escort services or "laughing gas."
In total, it is estimated that at least 70 footballers are involved. The pattern appears specific: they were offered the opportunity to participate in luxurious evenings at restaurants with escorts present, and then continue the entertainment at hotels or nightclubs.
Among them are reportedly players from Inter, Milan, Juventus, Sassuolo, and Verona.
The footballers participated in events organized by the company "Ma. De Milano," based in Cinisello Balsamo, which is at the center of an investigation by the Milan Public Prosecutor's Office for exploitation and facilitating prostitution.
Despite the reports, none of the players have yet been charged with an offense.
Regarding the financial data, the amount of 194,000 euros concerns payments by footballers for services that included dinners, escorts, and the use of "laughing gas."
Recorded conversations refer to requests for the supply of this substance to luxury hotels, which confirms its use in such circumstances.
To this amount are added the revenues from collaborating businesses in the entertainment sector, with a well-known Milanese nightclub being a characteristic example, where events were held on a weekly basis.
In total, profits from the alleged illegal activity are estimated to reach 1.2 million euros.
We remind you that, according to the Italian media, during the summer months, the activity of the ring was mainly transferred to Greece and especially to Mykonos.
