Federal prosecutor investigates incident between Roma and Atalanta officials

Federal Prosecutor Giuseppe Chiné has opened an investigation into a post-match altercation between Roma sporting director Tony D’Amico and Atalanta CEO Luca Percassi. The incident took place in the tunnel and later in the Monte Mario stand following the match at the Olimpico. Both clubs have issued statements reflecting divergent accounts of the confrontation. Roma characterized the event as a verbal assault by Percassi against D’Amico, while Atalanta provided a different version of the events. Although federal inspectors were not present when the incident occurred, the prosecutor plans to review evidence and interview key witnesses to reconstruct the situation. These interviews are scheduled to begin today to resolve the conflicting reports regarding the behavior of the two officials.
