Australian World Cup star Volpato fined over positive cocaine test

Cristian Volpato, an Australian World Cup star, faces a fine for a positive cocaine test. The incident occurred after he was pulled over for speeding in Sydney, initially reported in July. The NSW police confirmed two positive samples taken at the time, leading to a fine of Aus$722 (US$522) and the suspension of his driving licence since July.
Volpato, a 22-year-old attacking midfielder for Serie A club Sassuolo, switched his international allegiance from Italy to Australia shortly before the World Cup. He made three appearances for the Australian team during the tournament after moving to Sydney when he was younger, and previously represented Italy at various youth levels.
