Prosecutor starts investigation: Lautaro Martinez faces possible suspension for unusual reason
Inter's leading forward Lautaro Martinez could face suspension due to accusations of blasphemy during the match against Juventus, as reported by Il Messaggero.
Details. According to the source, the case of Lautaro has been taken under control by the federal prosecutor of the Italian Football Federation and an investigation has already begun.
The prosecutor has obtained video footage of Lautaro's lip-reading and is searching for compromising audio recordings that could lead to a suspension for at least one match, as provided by Article 37 of the Code of Sports Justice. However, it has not yet been disclosed what specific offensive phrase the Argentine allegedly uttered.
This season, Martinez has played 35 matches for the Nerazzurri across all competitions and scored 16 goals.
Reminder. It was previously reported that Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Francesco Acerbi, and Matteo Darmian could leave Inter for free this summer.
