Nicolás Arreche, a South American tennis competitor, has been barred from the sport for a period of four years after being discovered to have manipulated match results. The International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) determined him to be in violation of numerous regulations. Arreche, whose peak ranking was 567, will also be required to pay a financial penalty of $8,000.
The ITIA discovered that Arreche attempted to influence the results of matches and neglected to report corrupt actions. These incidents occurred between the years 2017 and 2019. He violated several rules, including those that prohibit players from influencing match outcomes and those that mandate players to report any attempts to bribe them.
Arreche was prohibited from taking part in or being present at any tennis competition sanctioned by any global or domestic tennis governing body. This prohibition is in force from April 24, 2021, to April 23, 2025.
The Argentinian competitor is the most recent to be suspended. Last month, the ITIA also barred Mexican tennis player Carlos Ramirez Uterman for a period of one year and ten months after he confessed to numerous corruption charges.
In December, the ITIA also banned six Moroccan tennis players for breaking the TACP regulations.
