SS Lazio skipper Stefano Mauri is one of eleven players arrested by Italian police as they investigate a match fixing scandal that threatens the nation’s preparation for the 2012 European Championships. The police also arrived at Italy’s training camp in Tuscany to search the room of former Genoa and current Zenit St.Petersburg defender Domenico Criscito and conduct further investigations. Like Criscito, Antonio Conte, the manager of 2011/12 domestic champions Juventus, has also been placed under investigation, although reports suggest this is more related to his time as manager at Siena rather than Juve. Conte managed Siena, whose president Massimo Mezzaroma, is also a suspect, before moving to Juve in 2011.
