Sky Sports News are reporting the deal to take Lucas Paqueta from West Ham to Manchester City is on the brink of collapse. The Brazilian wished to move to Pep Guardiola’s team but City will not pay the £85 million transfer fee demanded by The Hammers supremo David Sullivan.

It wasnt so much the deal broke down its we didnt get our pants pulled down!!!
Worried about kudus and pavaranos signing now but we still need to purchase them for long time if Lucas leaves next season
R85 million plus palmer Westham is delusional. keep your Brazilian
If he stays and does well this season then his value will increase which will be could for both parties at the end of this season.
City have the financial capacity to be one of the biggest bullies in the world (i/e PSG), but routinely back out of "paying over the odds" for players (a couple exceptions like Haaland ik). They could easily come to us, offer 150mil, spit on our faces and then tell us to wipe it off with the cash; but they don't. I feel like i should be happy abt that, but does a gazelle thank a lion for not eating it TODAY? anyway, moyes out n all
great news!
I dont believe Paqueta is staying tbh. If Kudus signs he is going to want guaranteed game time to get that deal over the line. A deal has probably already been agreed with city but not until a replacement is already in place because we've been caught out with last minute goings & not enough time for replacements before. The declan rice deal dragged on alot longer than we would've hoped or wanted so we learn our lesson. Maybe this way is now the Tim Steidten way of doing business
Could end being a good window. What realistic 2 signings would u like us to make. No links for him but I’d love us to get Marcus edwards from Lisbon and I think we need a better right back so I’d look at getting Geertruida from feyenhood
Losing Dec was bad enough, but at least we saw it coming. Losing paqueta would be double bad news. He's quickly become a fan favourite and really he's our most valuable player. He's the perfect cm, aggressive, can tackle and is like velvet on the ball. He makes us so much better. Hopefully paqueta can understand how important and valued he is, hence why he can't go yet.
Fabrizio Romarno is saying City looking at Dani Olmo RB Lipzig as another option.
Paqueta is being investigated by the FA for potential gambling breaches, a la Toney. The deal is OFF. Good news and bad news. 8 month ban?
Of course, if Lucas has a good season….which we all hope that he will….somebody will come in for him next year.
Get him and Kudus in the team and we might well be on to something this year but now we are hearing that the Kudus deal is on the rocks
It was there on the air that he would stay
Man City are using their ‘we’re Man City and ur player wants to come so you need to cut the price or he’ll strop’ discount. We were never going to sign Kudus and keep Paqueta so forget Kudus. Furthermore, we’re still waiting for Maguire and we’re jerking the Greek fellow around. By windows end it’ll be Lingard and Maguire in, and it won’t be happening until the very end of the window. Prepare yourselves so that you don’t lose your rags in the next 2 weeks. This isn’t going to go how you want or think.
goooooooooooood i dont want him too go
A pretty reliable City source has said that Pacqueta is being investigated by the FA for potential being breaches
*betting breaches
Yep. Won’t believe it until the deadline is passed
This is being reported by the Daily Mail now
Why can’t they pay 85 mil? If you really want a player you will go get them, and Paqueta is worth a lot more, City just gaming the irons so I’m happy we are resisting
paqwetter under investigation, kudus better player
great business so far, rice doesnt score enough 100 mill thank you g00ners
alverez wat a signing , city to offer 200 mill in 12 months
no mugwire yessssssssssssssssssssss
His getting banned for betting breaches
I’ve heard it’s broken down because he has been accused of betting 😮
turns out its actually because hes being investigated for betting breaches. bet sullivan wished he took that £70
Has Paq been caught betting?
Maybe he’s been betting on tackles or heading the ball or winking during the game?😜😜😜👉⚒👈
The deal is off, he's being investigated for betting irregularities. Where was the disclosure from West Ham and the FA during 10 days of negotiations ? I hope the FA, PL and the police investigate this as it stinks of FRAUD, very dissapointing.
Manchester City's team doing due dilligence discovered this and ir's a good job they did.
It really doesn't get any more serious than this, it's not a few grand for a second hand car, its £85million.
let him go please let him go just let him go!!!!!!!!!!!!
