SHOCKING: West Ham Sue 26 years Star for a breach of Contract.

The Lucas Paqueta betting breaches investigation has taken more twists and turns than a cheap garden hose.

Lucas Paqueta has been charged by the FA in relation to four separate breaches of betting rules during his time with West Ham, and it has been claimed that his career could be over as a result.

There have even been suggestions that the Hammers could actually sue the 26-year-old for a ‘breach of contract’.

Paqueta is under contract with the Hammers until the summer of 2027, and the club have the option to extend that deal by a further year.

Before all of these allegations came to light, the Brazilian was being heavily tipped to join Manchester City, and back in the summer of 2023 it was claimed that he had his heart set on a move to the Etihad.

Man City obviously stepped away from a potential move for Paqueta when news of the betting investigation emerged, but they rekindled their interest in the former Lyon man over the past month or so (Manchester Evening News).

However, that news broke before he was formally charged by the FA. So the rumours went quiet yet again.
