Only a few months ago, the UK\u2019s Football Association (FA) handed soccer player Ivan Toney<\/a> an eight-month ban for violating the organization\u2019s sports betting rules. He faced 232 counts of misconduct, which could be a hint of what\u2019s to come, now that Harry Toffolo potentially faces 375 counts.<\/p>\n

The FA is investigating the Nottingham Forest defender for allegedly placing more than 375 bets between Jan. 22, 2014, and March 18, 2017. During those four years, Toffolo was with Norwich City, but was loaned out to several teams, including Swindon Town, Rotherham United, and others.<\/p>\n

Toffolo allegedly violated FA rules that prohibit players from betting or sharing information with others that might affect bets. He has until July 19 to respond to the charges.<\/p>\n

Unclear Violations<\/h2>\n

It isn\u2019t clear how Toffolo may have violated the rules or how the FA learned of his actions. At least with Toney, some of his betting activity was relatively recent (2020-21), and would be easier to track.<\/p>\n
