Italian Soccer Federation (FIGC)
prosecutors have opened a probe in the way two AC Milan players
used a shirt given to them by Lazio's Francesco Acerbi as a sort
of trophy after their 1-0 win over the Rome side at the San Siro
at the weekend, ANSA sources said on Tuesday.
The development comes after Serie A's sporting judge said it
would not be taking action against Milan's Tiemoue Bakayoko and
Franck Kessie.
Acerbi had irked Milan players by saying he thought Lazio
were the better side in the run-up to the match.
After a bad tempered finale to the game, Acerbi said he
agreed to swap shirts to put an end to the row.
But the defender then expressed astonishment when he saw
Bakayoko and Kessie had paraded the shirt before Milan fans
afterwards.
The gesture was widely criticised.
