ROME (AP) - Italy's soccer federation is investigating Lazio captain Paolo Di Canio for making what appeared to be a neo-fascist salute after his side's 3-1 derby victory over AS Roma this week.
The federation asked its inquiry office on Friday to study Di Canio's action. The star was photographed with his arm outstretched, palm facing down - a gesture generally associated in Italy with fascist leader Benito Mussolini.
Di Canio, who was widely criticized for the gesture, said it had no political significance.
The Lazio star, who scored the opening goal of the Thursday's match, said he has been a die-hard, or "ultra" Lazio fan for his entire life. Some "ultra" fans have sometimes used neo-fascist gestures at matches.
The player returned to Lazio this season after playing several years in the English Premier League, and is a popular player among the team's fans.
