Yesterday Ibrahimovic was heard by federal prosecutor Giuseppe Chiné at Casa Milan (connected by videoconference) about the clash in the derby with Lukaku.
The interrogation took place at the Rossoneri headquarters , in the presence of the lawyer Cantamessa, lawyer of the club and of the Swedish champion, and of a representative of the Public Prosecutor's Office, the lawyer Fabio Esposito.
As pointed out by La Gazzetta dello Sport in today's edition, "this time Zlatan played in defense". Ibrahimovic did provoke the opponent, but he did not violate article 28 of the Sports Justice Code which condemns "any conduct that involves offense, denigration or insult for reasons of race, color, religion, language, sex, nationality, origin ethnicity, personal or social status"
The offending sentence in question was the one about "voodoo", but Ibra, with great serenity, explained that he referred to a well-known episode that had caused a sensation in England in 2017 as they were teammates in Manchester United. The newspaper further explained that the clippings of the English articles of the time ended up in the investigation as documentary evidence. What matters for Zlatan and for Milan is that the accusations of racism can be dropped. The Inter player will also be heard in the next few hours.
