Finance police early on Tuesday
searched the premises of some 30 soccer players and agents and
seized assets worth 12 million euros in a massive probe into 64
people suspected of systematic tax evasion and issuing false
invoices in the buying and selling of footballers.
Those under investigation include former Juventus CEO
Jean-Claude Blanc, Napoli chairman Aurelio De Laurentiis, AC
Milan CEO Adriano Galliani, Lazio President Claudio Lotito, ex
Napoli player Ezequiel Lavezzi, ex footballer Hernan Crespo, and
