AC Milan could be involved in serious problems after a video was leaked in which several of its players sang songs against Juventus in Turin, something that has led to an investigation by the Italian Football Federation Prosecutor’s Office. (FIGC).

The problem for Milan began after its star striker, the Portuguese Rafael Leao, shared a video on his Instagram ‘stories’ after his team’s 2-1 victory over Roma, in which the players were seen performing chants in which they offensively mentioned ‘Juve’.

🎥 This is the video for which the FIGC Prosecutor’s Office is investigating Milan players for anti-Juventus chants.

They are singing ‘Sarà perché ti amo’.

For this fact, Giuseppe Chinè has been appointed to lead the investigation that will determine if what was done by the footballers of the ‘Neroazzurro’ team warrants a sanction. At the moment, the video is being analyzed by the relevant authorities, according to the Italian press.

The investigation must determine “the possible violation of the canons of loyalty and correctness and identify those responsible”, indicate the local media.

In the video, Rafael Leao, Theo Hernández and Samuel Chukwueze, among others, are identified, changing the lyrics of a song to say: “And the one who does not jump is a Juventino hunchback.”

Juventus de Turin, which has not ruled on this issue, is serving a sanction that prohibits it from participating in European competitions this season, this for having been found guilty in the investigation carried out in recent years on the ‘Plusvalía case’, in which he is accused of modifying the sale price of some players to hide his income.

This is the biggest scandal in which the ‘Veccia Signora’ has been involved since it became involved with ‘Calciopoli’ in 2006, which cost it a sanction that included relegation to Serie B (second division) the dispossession of the ‘ Scudetto’ achieved a year earlier.
