West Ham footballer Lucas Paqueta embroiled in gambling allegations

The Football Association is looking into West Ham player Lucas Paqueta for possible betting violations, Mail Sport has learned.

Manchester City made a £70 million offer to Paqueta's club this summer in an effort to acquire his services. The Premier League champions are rumored to have increased their interest in Paqueta as a result of Kevin De Bruyne's injury. It can now be confirmed that the 25-year-old Brazilian is the subject of an FA investigation over allegations of gambling on football. The specifics are yet to be revealed while West Ham nervously wait to see if it will lead to Paqueta being charged by the authorities.
