- The red card incident followed a two-year FA investigation into spot-fixing allegations against Paqueta, from which he was cleared in July.
- After his dismissal, Paqueta took to social media to criticise the FA, stating he had not been provided with “psychological support”.
- West Ham manager Nuno Espirito Santo confirmed that Paqueta has since apologised to him and the wider squad for his mistake.
- Nuno expressed hope that the club can now move past the controversy, but admitted Paqueta is “not okay” and is “suffering”.
