“Having said that, personally, I think it was a personal indiscretion that affected the whole of Italian football, which seems exaggerated to me. Justice will take its course and this behaviour has gone against clear sportsmanship and rules: it is very clear to those in football that you cannot be involved in betting on football. You get this warning before the start of the season in all the countries, it is forbidden.”
