Tim Steidten on a freebie – a good bit of business for west ham united?
It has been all go for Lucas Paqueta over the past year or so, both on and off the pitch, and now Tim Steidten has flown out to Brazil to meet the West Ham star.
It emerged last summer that he was being investigated for his role in potential betting breaches, but things have got even worse for him since then.
Just a couple of months ago, it was revealed that the Hammers ace was actually charged for the alleged offences.
If Paqueta is found guilty, he reportedly could receive a lifetime ban – something that would obviously be an unmitigated disaster for both him and the club.
Paqueta is currently out in his homeland, after competing in the Copa America with Brazil in the United States.
He exited the competition at the quarter-final stage, and since then a shock report has claimed that he’s actively seeking to leave West Ham.
