"A step to the side" for Enrico Varriale, waiting for the judicial affair that sees him under investigation by the Rome prosecutor for stalking against his former partner to take on a clearer outline.

The company, the management of RaiSport and the journalist himself - we learn from sources in Viale Mazzini - agreed on the opportunity to suspend the video intervention scheduled for the Nations League finals for the first and for the third place, a of which the Italian national team will play in the semi-final against Spain tonight.

No suspension, nor disciplinary measures against Varriale - it is explained - but a decision taken by mutual agreement to protect Rai and Varriale itself and to avoid exploitation.

With regard to the former deputy director of RaiSport, the judge for preliminary investigations ordered the measure of the prohibition against approaching the places frequented by the injured person.

In the provision issued by the investigating judge, reference is made to "repeated conduct" of harassment and threats that would have provoked in the victim "a serious state of anxiety and fear".

"False accusations" destined to be "denied in fact" according to the journalist, who was questioned on September 30 to clarify his position.
