Nottingham Forest’s Toffolo charged for 375 breaches of FA’s betting rules

LONDON (AP) — Nottingham Forest defender Harry Toffolo was charged Wednesday with breaching the English Football Association’s betting rules.

Toffolo is alleged to have breached a rule 375 times between January 2014 and March 2017, the FA said. He was under contract at Norwich City in that period, during which he had spells on loan at Swindon, Rotherham, Peterborough and Scunthorpe.

Toffolo has until July 19 to respond to the charges.

In May, Brentford striker Ivan Toney was suspended for eight months for breaching the governing body’s betting rules. Toney admitted to 262 breaches from a period between February 2017 and January 2021.

Toffolo joined Forest from Huddersfield in the offseason on 2022 and made 19 appearances in the Premier League last season.
