Ex-Real Madrid and Man City star Robinho to serve 9-year prison sentence for rape: Reports
Ex-Real Madrid and Manchester City forward Robinho will have to serve a nine-year prison sentence for rape in Brazil, the court ruled.
Prati was part of the 1967-68 season Serie A winning Milan side and also won a couple of Coppa Italia trophies in 1971-72 and 1972-73 seasons apart from the European Cup in 1969.
In a recent development, former Milan and Italy forward Pierino Prati has passed away aged 73. He famously bagged a hat-trick in the final of the European Cup in 1969 as Milan pummelled Ajax 4 goals to 1.
Milan mourned the demise of Prati and shared a heartfelt tribute on Monday.
“Goodbye to a true Rossenoro legend. You were a shining light for us all and shall be dearly missed. Rest in peace Piero,” Milan’s official Twitter handle posted on Twitter.
