West Ham forward Lucas Paqueta cleared of spot-fixing charges

LONDON: West Ham forward Lucas Paqueta has been cleared of alleged spot-fixing after being accused of deliberately receiving yellow cards to influence betting markets. The English Football Association confirmed Thursday that an independent panel had found the charges unproven. “Lucas Paqueta denied the charges against him, and the Regulatory Commission found them to be not proven following a hearing,” the FA said in a statement. The ruling brings to an end a long-running case against the Brazil international, who was charged in May 2024.
