According to Italian paper La Verità, anti-money-laundering investigators are focusing on suspicious bank transactions completed by Roma and Italy legend Francesco Totti.
Totti is reportedly involved in ‘suspicious transactions reported by Anti-Money Laundering Officers’ and investigators have been scrutinising his bank accounts.
According to the report, Totti sent in August €80,000 to a pensioner in Anzio, the mother-in-law of a man considered very close to the ex-Giallorossi striker. On the same day, the sum was sent to Totti’s friend, an employee of the Interior Ministry.
Having retired as a professional footballer, Totti is clearly allowed to gamble, but investigators have ‘strong doubts regarding the real destination of the money’ from the 2006 Italy World Cup winner.
According to the report, there are more suspicious transactions worth millions, involving Totti and his friend, identified as D.M. which also include Malta limited, Malta limited online and Sa.Pa. Srl and companies owning Casinos in Las Vegas, Montecarlo and London.
Totti’s risk managers have denied allegations explaining that the ex-footballer has made payments to finance his days at the Casino in Monte Carlo as a ‘gambling fan.’
Look at that picture. Totti, Del Piero and the fact Italy had such a rich squad that they sometimes came off the bench. No wonder that team won the World Cup.
Somebody needs money, so looking for trouble from rich football starts in hope to get something.
Pathetic
