Lucas Paquetá Cleared of Betting Allegations by FA, West Ham Confirms

West Ham United announced that midfielder Lucas Paquetá has been fully cleared of all alleged betting breaches following an investigation by the Football Association (FA). The Brazilian star faced scrutiny over suspicious betting activity related to yellow cards in Premier League matches but consistently denied any wrongdoing and cooperated fully with the FA’s inquiry.

On Wednesday, July 30, 2025, West Ham issued a statement expressing relief and support, stating, “We are pleased to confirm that Lucas Paquetá has been cleared of all allegations concerning breaches of betting regulations. Lucas maintained his innocence throughout, and the club stood firmly behind him during the process.”

Since joining West Ham from Lyon in 2022, the 27-year-old has been pivotal to the club’s success in domestic and European competitions. The investigation had raised questions about his future, with interest from top clubs like Manchester City. Now exonerated, Paquetá can focus on the upcoming season, though speculation about a potential transfer may re-emerge. The resolution brings significant relief to both the player and West Ham, allowing them to proceed without distraction.
