Luxury Prostitution Network Dismantled in Milan
Italian authorities have uncovered a high-end prostitution ring in Milan frequented by approximately 50 Serie A footballers and one Formula One driver. Police have placed four individuals under house arrest and seized more than €1.2 million in profits from the operation, as efforts continue to break up the premium escort service.
The network operated through an illegal events promotion company that provided exclusive packages for affluent clients. These offerings, valued at thousands of euros each, encompassed luxury accommodations, dinners at top Milan restaurants, and evenings with selected companions.
Serie A Players Among Key Clients
Investigators identified clients including prominent players from AC Milan, Inter Milan, and other Serie A clubs. While the four facilitators, accused of arranging escorts and laundering money, face house arrest, the footballers and other patrons remain free from investigation.
F1 Driver Connection Revealed
Wiretaps expose a link to an unnamed Formula One driver. A supposed associate contacted the agency, inquiring: “I have a friend who is a Formula 1 driver and he wants a paid girlfriend. Can we find her?” The response came swiftly: “I’ll send him the Brazilian.”
Additional Revelations from Probe
One escort associated with the ring became pregnant during a paid encounter with a client. Authorities also discovered use of nitrous oxide, known as laughing gas, among participants.
The front company, located in Cinisello Balsamo near Milan, recruited escorts and hosted events in unlicensed nightclubs for years. Raids on residences and venues yielded evidence of the illicit earnings.
