Although the paper did not name him, it’s believed to be 25-year-old midfielder Buchel.
“After learning of unprofessional behaviour from one of its players, Empoli FC announce that disciplinary action will be taken as per our internal rules.
“The player will be sanctioned with a fine and not called up for the trip to Verona.”
Empoli play Chievo at the Stadio Bentegodi on Sunday afternoon.
Buchel made 13 appearances for the club this season between Serie A and the Coppa Italia, providing one assist.
He is a Liechtenstein international born in Austria who came up through the Juventus youth system.
Empoli bought Buchel outright from Juve last summer for €1.2m.
