Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali trained with his team-mates on Tuesday morning amid speculation that an investigation into breaches of betting rules was close to reaching a conclusion.<\/p>\n
Reports from Italy have suggested the 23-year-old former AC Milan player could learn his fate before Wednesday night\u2019s Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund at St James\u2019 Park, with some predicting a lengthy ban.<\/p>\n
However, the Italy international was among the group which trained at the club\u2019s Darsley Park training headquarters as they completed their preparations for the Group F fixture under grey skies and incessant rain.<\/p>\n
Tonali\u2019s representatives reportedly spent Monday in discussions with prosecutors, who launched an investigation while he was away on international duty earlier this month.<\/p>\n
He and compatriot Nicolo Zaniolo, currently on loan at Aston Villa from Galatasaray, are subject to a probe by the Italian Prosecutor\u2019s Office and Italian Football Federation (FIGC) in relation to illegal betting activity.<\/p>\n
Tonali\u2019s agent Giuseppe Riso had claimed the player was living with a \u201cgambling addiction\u201d and if breaches were found to have taken place, he could face many months on the sidelines.<\/p>\n
The midfielder, who joined the Magpies in a \u00a355million summer move from Milan, is accused of placing bets on the Rossoneri and former club Brescia during his time with them.<\/p>\n
He has made 11 appearances to date for Newcastle, including a start in the 4-1 Champions League victory over Paris St Germain earlier this month.<\/p>\n
