On May 25, in which the Rome youth team lost 1-2 to the Fiorentina youth team, Zagnolo broke into the Rome locker room after the game and clashed with the opponent's players.
Zaniolo reached an agreement with federal prosecutor Giuseppe Gine, who recognized two of its mitigation circumstances. During the inquiry, the prosecutor noticed Zaniolo's remorse for the behavior he committed, although his behavior was a response to the provocation of some of the Roma youth players. Gine asked the player to apologize publicly, and the latter posted a long article on social media to apologize on June 10. Through a series of hearings, the prosecutor also found that the facts differed from the descriptions of several announcements by the Club Rome: no slap in the face, no punches - Zagnolo just slapped one of the players on the back of the neck with his hand. The hospital examination report (two Roman players Almaviva and Liti were sent to the hospital after the conflict) showed no serious damage or wounds. One of them was even photographed playing tennis four or five days after the incident.
Zaniolo was originally charged with violating Article 4 of the Sports Justice Code on Loyalty and Integrity, as well as the violent conduct clause (which stipulates three games ban and fine). Due to a plea agreement reached before the hearing, it will automatically receive a 50% "sentence discount". The prosecutor also leniently treated him for cooperating with the investigation throughout the whole process and publicly repent afterwards, and finally ruled a fine of 15,000 euros. If the player is involved in similar incidents in the future, he will face severe punishment and shall not plead guilty to negotiate - due to his recurring offender status.
