The lawyer of AC Milan veteran Alessandro Florenzi says he has never bet on football.

Florenzi spoke with investigators in Turin on Thursday as part of Italy's betting probe.

As we already wrote in the statement that we released to the media, Florenzi is in no way accused of anything regarding football bets, they are merely personal bets that we clarified. I hope there will be no more to say, it is a very similar situation to Zaniolo," lawyer Gianluca Tognozzi told TV Play.

This is absolutely nothing to do with the world of football. The prosecutor in Turin did not send anything to the sporting justice prosecutor, because this is not related to football.

Florenzi confirmed to the prosecutor in Turin that he has never bet on football in his life and there is absolutely no suggestion that he did."
