Former West Ham United player and coach Kevin Nolan has sent some strong advice to Julen Lopetegui regarding Lucas Paqueta.
Kevin Nolan is a very popular figure at West Ham, so his message to Julen Lopetegui about Lucas Paqueta should be taken seriously.
The 42-year-old has actually been speaking about West Ham quite a lot recently, and suggested last month that we made a huge error by not signing Julian Alvarez in January 2022.
Now Nobby has switched his attention to Lucas Paqueta.
The 27-year-old Brazilian joined the Hammers from Lyon for around £50 million in the summer of 2022, and he made an instant impact at the London Stadium.
However, Paqueta’s world came crashing down the following summer when he was accused of falling foul of betting rules, and risked being banned from football for life because of his alleged involvement in the scam.
Ever since then, the South American just hasn’t been himself, and he certainly’ hasn’t been at his best.
Hammers director of football Tim Steidten had to fly out to Brazil to help him out in the summer.
