Italian authorities have referred the 25-year-old to the disciplinary commission, accusing him of sporting fraud rather than merely irregular betting.

Okoye is suspected of intentionally earning a yellow card in the 64th minute during Udinese’s Serie A match against Lazio, in which he was booked for time-wasting while his team led 2-1.

The incident occurred at the Dacia Arena on March 11, 2024.
