Attention! Rafael Leão has reacted to prostitution scandal in Italy | OneFootball

Rafael Leão took to social media this Thursday to insist that he is not involved in the prostitution scandal that has rocked Italian football in recent days, and in which his name appeared on a list of more than 60 current and former players published by the press in that country.

In the statement, the Portuguese international for Milan says he is "completely unrelated to the facts under investigation" by the Milan Public Prosecutor's Office. He also stressed that he has already spoken to his lawyer so that he can defend him "at every level against anyone who continues to spread false or damaging news about his reputation".

The scandal in question involves a multimillion-euro prostitution ring that operated in central Milan and counted several footballers and businessmen among its many clients. This organization posed as an event promotion company and then offered "all-inclusive" packages that began with nights out at exclusive venues in the city and ended with sexual services in luxury hotels.

In addition to Rafael Leão, the Portuguese players Nuno Tavares, of Lazio, and Dany Mota, of Monza, are also included. In addition to the Portuguese athletes, the Italian press also mentions the names of Olivier Giroud, Achraf Hakimi, Dean Huijsen, Arthur Melo, Ranocchia, Ruggeri, Skriniar and Soualiho Meité.
