West Ham United official website issued a statement confirming that Paqueta has completely escaped the allegations involved in gambling.

It is reported that an independent regulatory committee has revoked the FA's allegation of misconduct against Paqueta's relevant rules. During this long and difficult process, the club firmly supported Paqueta from the beginning. Karen Brady, vice chairman of West Ham United, said: "We are glad that Paqueta's allegations have been dropped. He insisted from the beginning that he was innocent, and as a club, we firmly stood on his side and supported him throughout the process. Despite the huge pressure, Paqueta still fought for the club week after week, always giving his all. This period was very difficult for Paqueta and his family, but he maintained his absolute professionalism from the beginning to the end. Now he and West Ham United have the opportunity to do his best. Like many, I look forward to turning this page. "

Lucas Paqueta said: "From the first day of the investigation, I have insisted that I am innocent in the face of these extremely serious accusations. I can't say anything more at the moment, but I want to express my gratitude to God and how much I long to return to the field with a smile. Thanks to my wife for always standing with me, thanks to West Ham, thanks to the fans who have been cheering for me, as well as my family, friends and the legal team that has supported me - thanks for everything you have done."

West Ham will not comment further on this matter at this moment.
