The Brazilian playmaker, who is accused of getting yellow cards on purpose for betting, may be banned for life from the sport if found guilty.
Per The Sun, West Ham are considering going to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne.
They want the case to not even be brought before the FA, as they are concerned about Paqueta’s future.
The source adds that West Ham are “questioning the FA's jurisdiction” on this matter.
