    I knew as soon as online sports betting got big there'd be gambling addiction. Crazy how it can ruin an athlete's life

    I believe Nicolo Zaniolo's transfer to Aston Villa only becomes permanent, depending upon a certain amount of appearances, which he has yet to trigger.

      @@sosososososo4148 you'd imagine they had an idea at the very least, to sell their captain, 23 years old, best years to come for 60+mil in these day and age, seemingly against tonali's own choice mere months before this breaks out would seem suspicious. But this is much harder to prove, I fear, its Newcastle that will bear the brunt during his suspension. I'd love for him to be cleared, but I'm fearing something in the region of what Ivan toney got. Ideally it'd be best if they could conclude their investigation towards the end of the season so preseason could count towards the 9-10month suspension if it does come. 😥. Hardly ideal, but he's a young guy at 23, he'd have been committing these offenses at 21/22. So let's hope it's not true, but if it is, he learns from it and recovers to be a legend here as we all want.

      Absolutely no, tonali wasn't on the trasfermarket and newcastle initially did want Barella but he refused so then they did go hard on tonali and the new Milan's owner wanted to start a moneyball cycle so with 80 mln in front of him it was an offer that he can't refuse, if newcastle didn't went that hard for him today tonali would have still in Milan (after finding about this im glad he left, totally shamefull)

    Before signing these expensive players, clubs need to do a background check.
    Do they beat up or bully their girlfriends/ wives?
    Have they behaved sexually inappropriately?
    Are they gambling in football?
    Have they made negative comments about religion or a person's sexual preference?
    I bet that Newcastle wished that they did a background check because if Tonali gets suspended Newcastle will be weakened in the Champions League. Hiring a PI could save them millions in the future.

      @SquadronW16Lebelo-zs9qn Also with Italy's history with match fixing in 2006 and 2011 any Italian footballer should know better about gambling, never mind the rules in Italian football. If they are using illegal bookmakers, what do you think will happen if you owe them money? They will then turn their attention to matches that the footballers are participating in.

      I think it all depends on what betting it is, and how it affects status in the UK from abroad they might be bans where you can't play full stop in all leagues and competitions. If they don't already there should be a clause in the contract if found guilty of betting when at a previous club they shud be able to retain a percentage of the money on the contract for how long they have played.

      He mentioned Fagioli! But he will get a lesser punishment as he handed himself in to authorities BEFORE they came to him and gave them information to expose this whole affair. Juventus / other clubs are not implicated unless they knew their players were doing it and didn't go to the authorities. Juventus deny they sat on it, and say they were the ones to persuade Fagioli to go to authorities as soon as they found out.

    Ban anyone that bet on football. Pretty easy. If he's an addict, have him use some of the million she has been paid to get that worked on. Stop giving them the money they will use to bring the game into disrepute, which is more likely if they are addicted.
