The prosecutors explain that it cannot be "thought" that the issue can be solved simply by removing top figures without "changing anything in the organisational system." Inter, "when dealing with" Marco Ferdico, the ultra leader who was arrested two days ago, "and particularly when giving in to his pressures" to obtain more tickets, was "effectively financing" him and the other ultras.
This was stated by the Milan Prosecutor's Office in the request for precautionary custody regarding the 19 arrests, which also outlined all the points that led to the opening of a preventive procedure for the club, as well as for AC Milan.
"The problem for FC Internazionale seems to arise primarily from an organisational perspective: it is about removing those 'toxic situations' that created the fertile ground for a sporting business environment to eventually turn into an opportunity for illegality, as it cannot be assumed that the situation described can be explained solely by the perverse personalities of individual people", the statement continues.
It is also not "reasonable to think", the prosecutors explain, "that the problem can be solved just by removing top or semi-top figures" without "changing anything in the organisational system." This is because "if the organisation remains unchanged, 'the newcomers' would find themselves in the same (toxic) conditions as their predecessors, and the illicit system would continue."
At Inter, "there is a sort of business culture, meaning a set of rules, a way of managing and running the company, an environmental context woven with even tacit conventions rooted within the structure of the legal entity, which have effectively, though negligently, favoured individuals under investigation for serious crimes who have been able to infiltrate the club's structure", the prosecutor concludes.
