seems to be suspended for longer due to gambling practices. The Italian was suspended by FIFA for ten months in October, and there is a good chance that this suspension will be extended.
The Italian was signed by Newcastle United last summer, but the Magpies have not been able to enjoy their new purchase much. The defensive midfielder has played eight Premier League matches so far. His last match dates from October 21, 2023, after which he was suspended for gambling via an illegal website. Moreover, he bet on matches of his own employers, i.e. AC Milan and Brescia.

Meanwhile, the FA suspects Tonali of having placed fifty bets on football matches between August 12 and October 12, 2023. It seems as if the Italian only stopped gambling when rumors of a first possible suspension began to circulate. Apart from a statement from Newcastle United in which the club reports that it supports the player in this process and Tonali will cooperate in the investigation, both parties do not want to comment on the situation.
Tonali is known as a great talent. The midfielder has often been compared to Andrea Pirlo in the past and left AC Milan last summer for a fee of around 64 million euros. He has made fifteen appearances for Italy so far.
