Nicolo Zaniolo and Sandro Tonali were officially investigated by Italian authorities this Thursday for their suspected involvement in illegal betting. Players from Aston Villa and Newcastle respectively have been questioned by police and have already left the Italian national football team’s training camp, now appearing on Italy’s casualty list for matches against Malta and England.
In a note published on its official website, the Italian Football Federation said it had ordered the two players to return to their clubs because they were not “in the necessary conditions to fulfill the commitments planned for the next few days.”
“The Federation reports that late this evening the Turin prosecutor’s office notified players Sandro Tonali and Nicolo Zaniolo, who are currently training with the national team at the Federal Technical Center of Coverciano, about the investigation. Regardless of the nature of these actions, given that in this situation the two players are not in the necessary conditions to fulfill the obligations planned for the next few days, the Federation has decided, also for their protection, to allow them to return to their respective clubs,” the statement reads. message can be read.
