Premier League star to face trial over spot-fixing allegation

Premier League star, Lucas Paqueta’s trial over alleged spot-fixing will begin this month, West Ham have been warned it could be bad news for the club.

Here is an exclusive update per Sky Sports on the West Ham star, revealing important details.

For almost two years, a cloud has hung over both Paqueta and the club. But now, the situation is about to come to a head, with the trial set to start soon.

For much of this time, Paqueta has looked like a player with his mind elsewhere. Only recently, under new manager Graham Potter, has the Brazilian begun to show his true form again.

This ongoing situation has badly affected West Ham’s performances and results.

The spot-fixing case against Paqueta has gained more attention than his football skills lately. The case claims that the 27-year-old midfielder deliberately received four bookings to manipulate the betting market.
