The inside track on the football stories that matter
Everton’s former chief Keith Wyness has urged the FA to expedite a decision on a potential betting rule breach ban for West Ham star Lucas Paqueta., the 66-year-old – who served as CEO at Goodison Park between 2004 and 2009 and now runs a football consultancy advising elite clubs – claimed there is no reason the English top-flight can’t resolve this case before the start of the 2024-25 campaign.
Paqueta was hit with six FA charges in May over alleged spot-fixing surrounding yellow cards received in four Premier League games.An FA investigation was prompted after betting activity in Brazil on Paqueta receiving a yellow card in West Ham’s home game against Aston Villa last year.Wyness claimed it is a “black and white” case and should be resolved before West Ham kick-off against Aston Villa on 17 August.
“We don’t know the full details with Paqueta – where the bets were made, etc. I’ve heard various whispers and various versions, and I don’t want to comment on that. “But all these things should be expedited. Decisions are taking too long in many areas of the FA and Premier League.“I don’t know what takes so long. This shouldn’t take longer than three months to sort out.
“As long as people have the chance to respond and show evidence, that’s all the process you need and it doesn’t take longer than two or three months.“Players can’t have these things hanging over them. If they’re innocent, then these things need to be cleared up as soon as possible.”
