West Ham have denied this evening they have any idea when the investigation into Lucas Paqueta‘s so called betting breaches will be completed as more nonsense into the inquiry.
Oh dear – more Paqueta inquiry nonsense reported
Football Insider claiming they have been told from a source that the probe is coming to a close @West Ham Exclusive: Big update on Paqueta & betting investigation (footballinsider247.com)
However, West Ham have told us this evening through our prime source they have no idea of when the initial investigation will end and nor does anybody else!
And despite Football Insider’s claims, they admit in their very own story, the Football Association refused to comment when they asked where the investigation is at the moment.
Our source declared: “The Football Association has not been in touch since the probe opened in the summer transfer window last year. It has been the same in every other betting irregularities case they have investigated. They announce publicly – never leak”
It should also be explained that the current probe is to decide whether the FA accept Paqueta’s not guilty plea. If they don’t there will be another probe which he will contest through lawyers.
And as we have reported in the past that could last another year or more, making a switch to Manchester City impossible in the summer and probably next winter’s transfer window.
