West Ham's Paqueta warned over FA rule breaches

West Ham United midfielder Lucas Paqueta has been reprimanded and warned about his future conduct - but has not been fined - for his failure to comply with a Football Association investigation into allegations of spot-fixing.

In July, an independent regulatory commission cleared the Brazil playmaker of four charges that he deliberately got booked in four separate matches in 2022 and 2023 "for the improper purpose of affecting the betting market".

However, the 28-year-old was found guilty of two breaches of FA Rule F3; failing to comply with a requirement to answer questions and provide information to the FA's investigation into breaches of the rules.
