Lucas Paqueta is set to be charged by the FA with alleged breaches of betting rules in a dramatic development that is likely to scupper a proposed £80million transfer to Manchester City this summer.
The FA have been investigating suspicious betting activity surrounding three bookings Paqueta received last year for almost nine months, and Mail Sport has learned the Brazilian international is facing disciplinary charges.
Paqueta denies any wrongdoing and any knowledge of the suspicious bets, which have been traced to Paqueta Island, off the coast of Rio de Janiero.
The 26-year-old was interviewed by the FA last September and gave the governing body access to his phone the following month.
The FA investigation was triggered by suspicious betting patterns surrounding an injury-time yellow card received by Paqueta in West Ham's 1-1 draw at Bournemouth on the opening day of the season last August.
In addition to Paqueta's booking for shoving Bournemouth's Illia Zabarnyi the FA also investigated bets on two yellow cards he received last season; one for a late challenge on John McGinn in a 1-1 draw with Aston Villa on March 11 and another for fouling Leeds' Crysencio Summerville on May 21.
Paqueta's case will be heard by an independent commission and he could be given a ban if found guilty. While Ivan Toney received an eight-month ban for betting on football last year it is understood that Paqueta has not been accused of placing any bets himself.
