In a recent development related to the arrests of 19 members of Inter and Milan’s organized fan groups, Milan captain Davide Calabria has been mentioned in the investigation documents. While not accused of any wrongdoing, Calabria’s name appears in connection with a meeting that allegedly took place with a prominent ultra leader.
According to the investigation report, Calabria met with Luca Lucci, the head of Milan’s Curva Sud, at a bar in Cologno Monzese on February 8, 2023. The meeting was reportedly arranged in a cryptic manner, with Giancarlo Capelli, known as “il Barone” and a long-standing ultra leader, informing Lucci about an imminent arrival of someone he was supposed to meet.
The investigation claims that based on surveillance footage, the individual mentioned in the cryptic phone conversation is believed to be Davide Calabria, the Milan player and team captain.
It’s important to note that Calabria is not under investigation, as confirmed by Chief Prosecutor Marcello Viola. The mention of his name in the documents appears to be part of the broader context of the investigation into the activities of ultra groups associated with both Milan clubs.
This revelation comes as part of a larger operation that saw the arrest of 19 individuals connected to the organized fan groups of Inter and Milan. The arrests were made on charges of criminal association and various other offenses, highlighting the ongoing efforts to address issues within football fan culture in Italy.
