主持人:1991年1月7日凌晨,一个电话揭示了马拉多纳与那不勒斯黑手党之间的应召女郎交易。电话中,一位女士确认了需求,安排了会面,并确认了马拉多纳的参与。马拉多纳当时是那不勒斯之王,但这次通话却被警方监听,注定了他的命运。我从这次通话中,可以窥见马拉多纳私生活的混乱,以及他与黑社会之间千丝万缕的联系。这次事件也预示着他职业生涯的衰落,以及随之而来的丑闻和耻辱。我希望通过这个故事,让大家更深入地了解马拉多纳的另一面,以及那不勒斯黑手党对他的影响。 主持人:马拉多纳总是在Vincenzo's鬼混,尤其是在比赛后的周日晚上,他甚至可能一直待到周三。这表明他生活方式的放纵和不规律。Italo's提供应召女郎和可卡因,马拉多纳是那里的常客,进一步揭示了他与犯罪团伙的勾结。他已经不再是那个天真可爱的孩子,他已经变成了品牌、纨绔子弟和百万富翁。我希望通过这个故事,让大家更深入地了解马拉多纳的另一面,以及那不勒斯黑手党对他的影响。
