Benevento coach Roberto De
Zerbi, the former manager of Serie B club Foggia, was paid under
the table by former Foggia vice president Ruggiero Massimo
Curci, arrested for money laundering in a tax-dodge scam Monday,
judicial sources said. De Zerbi, whose current side won its
forts Serie A point with a goalie header against AC Milan
Sunday, allegedly received 15,000 euros, part of off-the-books
wages to managers and players, sources said.
Curci was arrested in a Milan mafia probe into tax dodging,
police said Monday.
Curci, an accountant who is currently Foggia honorary VP, is
accused of orchestrating a "huge" tax-dodging and money
laundering scheme, police said.
He allegedly received some 600,000 euros in illegal gains
from businessmen involved in the scheme, police said.
