Geez, if this is true it is bonkers.
He must have known that he was being looked at when he left Italy. Why the hell would he continue to bet on football matches once he was here? Even as a compulsive gambler, why not leave football alone and bet on something else - maybe horse racing???

I’d say the opposite… I’d say that given he continued while here suggests he did NOT know he was being investigated.

The EFA are going to treat it as one continuous offense and his charges will be treated as such.

Their punishment / penalty will run concurrently with his present ban, which means he won't have any extra time out of the game.

When his current ban is up he'll be back in action as scheduled.

So let's not vilify a lad who's already been punished and dealing with his addition like a man, owned up, getting help and redoubled his efforts to repay the club & manager for their support.
