ROME (AP)—Italian tennis players Daniele Bracciali and Potito Starace are facing corruption accusations after intercepted Internet conversations claiming they sold matches were printed Wednesday in Italian media.

The conversations are part of the extensive data that judicial investigators in Cremona have been sorting through as part of a widespread match-fixing inquiry into soccer.

In a July 2007 conversation on Skype between Bracciali and an accountant who was arrested in 2011, Bracciali discusses arranging a match in Newport, Rhode Island, against American player Scoville Jenkins.

Jenkins won 6-2, 6-1.

In 2011, an owner of a betting parlor who was later arrested is heard saying that Starace agreed to sell the final of a tournament in Casablanca.

Pablo Andujar of Spain won the final 6-1, 6-2.

Prosecutor Roberto Di Martino, who is leading the Cremona inquiry, confirmed to The Associated Press the authenticity of the conversations.

Di Martino added that foreign tennis players might also be involved.

''I can't rule that out,'' Di Martino told the AP. ''But I can't say anything more for now.''

Bracciali and Starace, neither of whom are officially under investigation, had no immediate comment.

The Last Bet operation has resulted in more than 100 people placed under investigation in Italy since mid-2011, with suspect soccer matches being looked at by prosecutors in Cremona, Bari and Naples. Now the inquiry is branching out to other sports.

The 36-year-old Bracciali is now a doubles specialist while the 33-year-old Starace is ranked 150th in singles.

Bracciali and Starace were already two of five Italians — along with Alessio Di Mauro, Giorgio Galimberti and Federico Luzzi — who were given suspensions between 2007-08 by the ATP tour ranging from six weeks to nine months for betting.

In other cases of match-fixing in tennis, Daniel Koellerer of Austria and David Savic of Serbia were banned for life in 2011 and 2012, respectively.

Earlier this year, Russian player Andrey Kumantsov was banned for life by the Tennis Integrity Unit, which was formed by the ATP and WTA tours, the International Tennis Federation and the Grand Slam Committee.

And in July of this year, one man was charged and five others arrested in an Australian police operation against an international tennis match-fixing syndicate.
