Wiretapped conversations involving Gianluca Rocchi have surfaced, detailing his views on Inter Milan's grievances regarding referee assignments. The recordings, dated April 29, 2025, show Rocchi discussing potential changes to officiate a match against Verona after noting that Inter was persistently voicing complaints. Rocchi suggested swapping referees due to the frustration from Inter officials, including president Beppe Marotta. Prosecutors have requested the dismissal of the investigation into Rocchi, concluding there was no organized system to alter matches despite episodes of interference. The files have been forwarded to the FIGC’s federal prosecutor for possible disciplinary action, as separate inquiries continue into VAR interventions.
