Investigated: Domenico Criscito (right) at Italy training

'Our legal team is working in order for the magistrates to listen to him as soon as possible.'

Italian Football Federation (FIGC) vice-president Demetrio Albertini announced the former Genoa player will not go to Poland and Ukraine.

'Criscito will not be with us at the European Championship,' Albertini said in a press conference.

'He is in a hurry to end this current situation and that is his aim.

'He is disappointed to have caused this situation although he reiterates he has nothing to do with it.
Albertini added: 'We are disappointed but we have to remain close to the player.

'The decision not to include Criscito is a collective decision. The Federation has given Prandelli its support over this decision.

'Arrests have been made today but until proven otherwise, we are talking about innocent people even though they are considered suspects.

'I know Domenico and he is incredulous. He is an extraordinary guy and he has already seen his lawyers this morning.

'It is a strange day for us. These are things that we would not like to have had to go through.'
