Thursday, April 23rd 2026

The main news in Italy in recent days has centered around the alleged discovery of a prostitution ring in Milan, where over 70 names of Serie A footballers, past and present, are mentioned as clients of the people who operated it. Among them is one of the summer transfers of last year of Real Madrid.

The Italian Financial Police has recently discovered a company that operated in Milan, as reported by Marca. Among the offers to high-profile clients were parties in nightclubs, the use of laughing gas and an “all-inclusive” package, which referred to prostitution. The names mentioned are not under investigation, as according to Italian law only the “service” providers remain responsible.

The services were offered to Inter Milan and AC Milan footballers, as well as visiting teams in the city. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the company kept 50% of the payment for the “all-inclusive” package, while the rest was distributed to the people who realized it.

Names such as Alessandro Bastoni, Dejan Stanković, Raoul Bellanova, Yann Bisseck, Achraf Hakimi, Philippe Coutinho, Milan Škriniar and Carlos Augusto are mentioned from Inter. Koni De Winter, Rafael Leão, Olivier Giroud and Jérémy Ménez are mentioned from Milan. It should be noted that it is not clear what services these names used, and it may have been limited to nightclub events.

As reported by Sport, Real Madrid defender Dean Huijsen is another name mentioned as a client in the investigation, along with other Juventus players. Former FC Barcelona midfielder Arthur Melo is also on the list, while players from Monza, Como and Atalanta are said to have been offered their services.

So far, the only player to have reacted publicly is Milan striker Rafael Leão. He has denied any involvement in illegal activities and has warned of legal action against those who damage his reputation. As noted above, the Italian prosecutor’s office is not investigating any of the players mentioned.
