Gattuso, Brocchi have houses raided in match-fixing probe

The houses of Gennaro Gattuso and Cristian Brocchi have been raided by police as part of an investigation into match-fixing.

Four men have been arrested, reports Italian paper Gazzetta dello Sport, though none of the quartet themselves are sportsmen.

The ‘calcioscommesse’ investigation is part of the Italian police’s operation against illegal betting in football, with the four men taken into custody believed to be alleged intermediaries between footballers and those placing bets.

Former Italy internationals Gattuso and Brocchi saw their houses raided as part of the operation and are now under investigation.

Gazzetta also writes that authorities are taking a close look at a number of top-flight games involving Milan, Juventus and Inter.

Those under the microscope are Milan-Lazio, Chievo-Milan [both February 2011], the March 2011 Milan-Bari game, Juve-Lazio [April 2012] and Palermo-Inter [April 2013].

A press conference will be held later on Tuesday to give more details on the latest developments.

Gattuso, 35, was sacked as Palermo manager in September. During a colourful playing career he represented Rangers and Milan, as well as winning 73 caps for the Italian national team.

Gattuso: I'll kill myself if found guilty of match-fixing

Former Italy and AC Milan midfielder Gennaro Gattuso has rejected accusations of his alleged involvement in match-fixing and dramatically claimed he would kill himself if found guilty.

Gattuso, a 2006 World Cup winner who played for Rangers in the late 1990s, was on Tuesday named by Italian media in a probe being carried out by Cremona's prosecuting office.

Ex-Lazio midfielder Cristian Brocchi is included in the investigation, according to reports.

Both face allegations that they were involved in a betting ring that fixed Serie A and other Italian games in the 2010-11 campaign.

Quoted in La Repubblica Sport, Gattuso told Sky Sport Italia: "Never have I ever had the slightest thought about possibly fixing a game.

"If something was proven I would be willing to go out into the street and, I know this is a strong thing to say, I would kill myself.

"Anyone who knows me knows that I can't stand to lose even a practice game, not even a game of cards with my friends.

"I'm angry and offended. I want to clear everything up so I don't have a stain on my career. I have never gambled in my life."

Reports in Italy claim that Gattuso and Brocchi both had telephone contact with people that were arrested on Monday night by police.

The four taken into custody are charged with sporting fraud as part of 'Last Bet' operation, an investigation that began in 2010 and that has already led to 54 arrests, including current and former Italian players.

"Gennaro is stunned by the news," Gattuso's agent Andrea D'Amico told Press Association Sport. "I spoke to him and he is returning home (to Milan).

"We are remaining calm and we have to be patient and see how the investigation develops.

"However, just because he is under investigation does not mean anything, for all we know this could be just false allegations.

"Sometimes when you are a famous player, it is very easy for your name to appear and to be a target.

"We will wait and see how the situation develops."

Gattuso, 35, retired from professional football earlier this year to pursue a coaching career.

He has been out of a job since being sacked as head coach by Serie B side Palermo in September.

Brocchi is currently a youth-team coach at AC Milan.
