Italy’s Daniel Maldini cleared of drug use after Milan car crash
Cagliari’s Daniel Maldini was among six people slightly injured when his Porsche Carrera collided with another vehicle in the city’s north on Sept 13.
MILAN: Hospital tests have confirmed that Italy's Daniel Maldini did not use drugs during a recent car accident in the city, a local police source revealed on Monday. The 24-year-old, who currently plays for Cagliari, was involved in a collision with another vehicle at around 5:15 a.m. on September 13. Six individuals sustained minor injuries in the incident.
Following the crash, Daniel Maldini's driving license was temporarily revoked due to his blood alcohol level exceeding the legal limit. The athlete, who is the son of former Italy and AC Milan defender Paolo Maldini, had previously been selected for the national team just last week and had six appearances for Italy. After receiving medical attention at the hospital, Maldini underwent drug testing, and the results, disclosed on Monday, negated any suspicion of narcotic substance consumption.
Daniel Maldini's legal representative, Danilo Buongiorno, expressed satisfaction with the test outcomes, stating that they corroborated what his client had consistently claimed—that he has never used drugs. The only remaining legal issue is that of drink-driving. Daniel Maldini has had a career playing for several Serie A clubs, including Lazio, Atalanta, and AC Milan.
