TURIN, Italy: In his first public comments since being implicated in a betting scandal, Juventus midfielder Nicolò Fagioli apologized for a “naive error” and also criticized newspapers for writing what he called was “garbage.” The statement, via two Instagram stories posted on Wednesday, came the day after Fagioli was banned for seven months by the Italian soccer federation for betting violations. He was also ordered to undergo treatment for a gambling addiction. “I thought I would start by apologizing not only to Juventus fans but to all fans in the world of soccer and sport for the naive error that I made,” Fagioli wrote.
