Marcell Jacobs, the renowned sprinter from Desenzano del Garda, recently shared his thoughts on the controversial Tortu case during the first episode of the fifth season of the talk show “Belve,” hosted by Francesca Fagnani. During the interview, Jacobs revealed that he was “deeply shocked” by the news concerning Filippo Tortu’s brother, who is involved in a spying incident that has personally affected him. While he expresses skepticism about a possible direct involvement of Filippo in the situation, he does not rule out the possibility that further details may emerge.
When the host asked him if Filippo had taken any measures regarding his brother, Jacobs answered negatively but added, “I would have done it,” emphasizing his firm stance on the matter. The discussion then shifted to the personal vulnerabilities and disappointments that the champion is currently facing during this delicate time for him and his team.
