AC Milan man arrested

13 April 2012

The team doctor of European football giants AC Milan is under arrest for alleged indecent exposure to a woman in a hotel ahead of tonight's Champions' League clash with Manchester United.

Armando Gozzini, 44, was believed to be having a massage by a female member of staff in the spa suite of The Lowry Hotel in Manchester, when the alleged indecent exposure happened.

Police were called to the exclusive £500-a-night hotel at 9.50pm last night and Gozzini, team doctor of one of Europe's biggest clubs, was arrested.

He is now being held in a cell at a police station in Salford, just hours before kick-off to tonight's game at Old Trafford.
AC Milan will line up against Sir Alex Ferguson's United team tonight in the first leg of a crucial Champions League match.
The Milan team includes footballing stars such as former Man Utd defender Jaap Stam and Paolo Maldini, a former captain of Italy. The team are coached by Carlo Ancelotti.
The team are staying at the Lowry just three miles from Old Trafford.
Along with around 20 players, the party includes about 25 others, including directors, medical and other staff.

Police will not name the suspect unless and until he is charged with an offence.
A spokeswoman for The Lowry said: "It is a police investigation. We cannot make any comment."

A spokeswoman for Greater Manchester Police said: "A 44-year-old man has this morning been arrested in connection with this incident and is currently being interviewed at a police station in Salford."
