Nicola Zalewski is the most recent football player to be charged in the betting investigation that has already brought down a number of Serie A players. The Roma fullback is the fourth player in football who is allegedly being looked into for engaging in illegal wagering.
Full-back Zalewski represents both the Polish national team and Serie A club Roma. Zalewski was rejoining the Polish U21 Squad after resolving a number of personal and professional issues prior to being implicated in the scandal.
Although Serie A athletes are permitted to bet on sports, they cannot wager on their own sport, and the websites they use must be compliant.
