Bastoni, the lawyer: 'Surprise and disappointment, but he is resilient'

Lawyer Salvatore Scuto defends Matteo Bastoni from judicial accusations, expressing dismay but confidence in the mental strength of the Nerazzurri defender. The lawyer made official statements to Rai News, intervening in the case which involved the Inter centre-back. Scuto used precise terms to describe the state of mind of the player's entourage, speaking of "surprise" and "displeasure" at the news of the investigation.

The judicial situation has created an aura of uncertainty around the figure of Bastoni, pillar of Simone Inzaghi's defense, forcing his legal representative to break his silence to provide a first instance of clarification and public support. During the interview, the lawyer did not limit himself to contesting the media attention, but wanted to underline the human qualities of his client. “He is resilient enough to deal with this difficult situation,” Scuto said, suggesting the player has the mental fortitude to not crumble under the pressure.
