Reading the 568 pages of the order with the precautionary measures ordered by Gip Domenico Santoro reveals disturbing scenarios on the state of relations between the Milanese clubs and the most extreme fringes of the fans, which have turned into real criminal associations, with a lot of connections with mafia-type organised crime. A scenario in which Inter, Milan and their players and managers are subjected to undue pressure and constant threats to satisfy their thirst for illicit gains.
Assuming, as the investigators have reiterated, that the two clubs are to be regarded as injured parties and that there are no suspects within their ranks, it is also true that there could still be sporting and/or administrative repercussions.

The Prevention Procedure
.In the order of the gip, about the investigations started in different strands, especially in the years 2019 and 2020, it is highlighted how 'the Inter club is in a situation of subservience towards the exponents of the Curva Nord, ending up, in fact, to facilitate them even if obtorto collo'. A situation that 'to date, has not changed at all (if not worsened)'. So much so that Milan Prosecutor Marcello Viola said that 'we will have to assess whether there are any critical issues and with the cooperation of the clubs how to solve them'.
In fact, in parallel to the investigation, 'prevention proceedings' have been initiated by the Milan Court, usually initiated by the Special Section in the presence of a simultaneous request for judicial administration against the company involved, as has happened recently for companies in the logistics, private security and fashion sectors.
However, the receivership of the two clubs or company branches is an extreme measure and has not even been considered at the moment. Rather, the investigators intend to verify whether Inter and Milan have done everything possible to escape undue pressure from the ultras and whether shortcomings remain - such as those brought to light by the ongoing investigation - in the management of certain activities, in particular, related to ticket sales and access to the stadium. Deficiencies such as to jeopardise, on the one hand, the full autonomy of the club and, on the other hand, the safety of other spectators. Inter and Milan, in any case, immediately made themselves available to cooperate with the Public Prosecutor's Office and its consultants to improve their organisational standards.
