A few hours after Inter Milan defeated AS Roma 3-1 in San Siro, Lukaku held a 28th birthday party at The Square Milano Duomo hotel, and invited many Inter Milan players to attend. Upon receiving the news, local police organized a raid and arrested him immediately on the battlefield.
Corriere della Sera newspaper reported in detail that Lukaku was with 23 guests, including many teammates such as Ashley Young, Achraf Hakimi and Ivan Perisic, ... who were ambushed by authorities and fined at 3am.
The Square Milano Duomo hotel manager is believed to have hosted the event for Lukaku. An exclusive VIP room at this hotel costs £162/night. And this not only makes fans have a bad view of the club's image, but also doubts the city's officials.
Milan is in the "yellow zone" as Italy continues to gradually escape the COVID-19 pandemic. That means the loosening of regulations helps individuals who are allowed to move between regions to also be classified as yellow. But until June 15, individuals were only allocated one trip per day, and any visit was limited to 4 adults.
In addition, there are strict orders at night, prohibiting large gatherings from 10pm to 5am. According to the police, Lukaku's party violated both the time and number of guests.
