FA charges Nottingham Forest’s Toffolo over betting breaches

The English Football Association (FA) has charged Nottingham Forest defender Harry Toffolo with 375 separate breaches of its betting rules.

All breaches took place between 22 January 2014 and 18 March 2017, with Toffolo allegedly placing a series of bets.

The breaches relate to FA Rule E8, which states any player, match official or coach must not bet, either directly or indirectly, on any matters related to football anywhere in the world.

The FA did not disclose further details at the time, with Toffolo having until 19 July to provide a response.

Toffolo, who joined Premier League club Nottingham Forest in 2022, was playing for several clubs on loan during the period.

Loaned out by Norwich City, he played for Swindon Town, Rotherham United, Peterborough United and Scunthorpe United. All these clubs ply their trade in the lower leagues, outside the top-tier Premier League.

Nottingham Forest is yet to issue a response to the charges.
