READ MORE;Huge Lucas Paqueta investigation update provided
West Ham United star Lucas Paqueta will soon discover his fate regarding the ongoing investigation into him.
Lucas Paqueta joined West Ham in the summer of 2022 from Lyon, but it looked like he was set for a big-money move to Manchester City just one year later.
However, the Brazilian’s move to Man City didn’t happen in the end after news emerged that he was under investigation by the FA and FIFA regarding irregular betting patterns.
Since then, the investigation has rumbled on, and the Hammers star has played a key role for David Moyes.
But when will we find out one way or another what is actually happening with Paqueta? It seems like it won’t be too long before everyone knows what’s going on…
Lucas Paqueta investigation update
Football Insider have claimed that Paqueta will discover his fate very soon, with the investigation into his potential betting breaches now close to being completed.
It will be so good for Paqueta and everyone at the London Stadium to get peace of mind regarding this.
I’m hoping that it’s a positive outcome. We’ve seen numerous players given swift punishments for their involvement with betting throughout the years, most recently when Newcastle’s Sandro Tonali was handed a 10-month ban.
So the mere fact that the investigation into the Brazilian is taking so long should be good news really shouldn’t it?
Lucas Paqueta’s alleged breaches do seem to be slightly more complicated, so it’s understandable why the investigation is taking longer to conclude.
The hope is that he is cleared of all wrongdoings. However, if that turns out to be the case, our problem will then be keeping him out the grasp of Manchester City.
