Nicolo Fagioli, a Juventus and Italy player, is preparing for his return after a long suspension due to a gambling ban.
Fagioli will be back on the pitch against Bologna today, May 20, at the Renato Dall'Ara Stadium at 20:45 CEST.
The path to return
After an investigation into his gambling activities began last August, Fagioli faced the possibility of a three-year ban. However, he was eventually suspended for 12 months, with the condition that the period be reduced if certain criteria were met, including treatment for gambling addiction.
Comparison with other cases
Cases of disqualification due to gambling are not uncommon. An example is Brentford's Ivan Toney, who received an eight-month ban and fine after 232 breaches of FA betting rules.
Fagioli's return means a resumption of his career after a difficult period. Time will tell how he adapts to the situation and whether he can fully regain his form.
