Inter & Moratti were behind the Calciopoli scandal – Vieri

Former Inter striker Christian Vieri has sent shockwaves through the Italian game by suggesting that the Calciopoli scandal was dreamt up and executed by Nerazzurri president Massimo Moratti in order to make his club the strongest team in Italy and send Juventus down to Serie B.

Vieri is currently suing Inter and telecommunications company Telecom Italia for illegal wire tapping.
“I am ready to show everyone the document, everyone knew what was happening. I was spied upon because I cannot keep these things locked up,” Vieri said as reported by Firenze Viola.

“Seventy per cent of the contract was to be paid by Inter, and the other 30 per cent by Telecom who used me for advertising campaigns so that they could pay less taxes.

“I have only ever spoken about this to Mr [Rinaldo] Ghelfi of Inter, agreeing everything with him.

“I felt really sorry for Juventus because I have affection for them. The same with Milan. I thought I was doing something good for my president who has plenty to sell in terms of having a double personality.”

Since Calciopoli, the Nerazzurri have dominated Serie A with three successive Scudetti on the pitch, having previously waited since 1989 to win the Campionato.
