MILAN (AP) — Milan’s public prosecutor has dismissed the case against former Italian referee designator Gianluca Rocchi and his deputy Andrea Gervasoni for alleged sports fraud.Rocchi, who was the head of referees in Serie A and Serie B, was placed under criminal investigation in April. He was accused of influencing VAR decisions and altering the selection of referees.However, a statement issued by the Milan Public Prosecutor’s Office on Wednesday said that it had found “no evidence of a structured system aimed at interfering with appointments.”Rocchi was under investigation for incidents during the 2024-25 season. He allegedly changed the official for an Inter Milan match to one who was more favorable toward the Nerazzurri.Inter, which finished a point behind Serie A champion Napoli that season, was not implicated.Rocchi was also alleged to have interfered with VAR protocols during a Serie A match between Udinese and Parma on March 1, 2025, by banging on the window of the VAR booth and recommending that the officials call for an on-field review of a penalty.The documents relating to that incident have been passed to the Monza Public Prosecutor’s Office as the site of the VAR Operations room comes under their jurisdiction.
