Toffolo has been charged with breaching misconduct in relation to betting rules (FA Rule E1 b) and has until next Wednesday (July 19) to respond to the charges.

He was also loaned out to Swindon, Rotherham, Scunthorpe and Doncaster- all from Norwich- during the period in which the offences are alleged to have taken place.

Former Posh star Ivan Toney ultimately admitted 232 breaches of FA betting rules in May and was handed an eight-month ban from all footballing activity; therefore setting the precedent for Toffolo to potentially receive an even longer ban. He was also fined £50,000.
