Alessandro Florenzi is under investigation by the Public Prosecutor's Office in Turin for alleged involvement in online betting activities in illegal websites.
As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport this morning, the Prosecutor's Office has neither confirmed nor denied this information. The source of Florenzi's involvement has not been disclosed yet.
It might have surfaced during interrogations of other players or through examinations of electronic devices seized from Tonali and Zaniolo in Coverciano. The investigation remains ongoing, and the Prosecutor's Office in Turin is maintaining maximum confidentiality.
What consequences does Florenzi face if the allegations are confirmed?
At a legal level, he might face a fine at most. However, in terms of sports penalties, it depends on whether he indeed placed bets on football matches. For a registered player, general betting is not prohibited, but betting on their own sport is.
If proven, Florenzi could face suspension, similar to what happened to Sandro Tonali and Nicolo Fagioli.
