According to the Daily Mail, negotiations between the clubs have been terminated.

Manchester City offered £70m for the player and were looking to replace Kevin De Bruyne, who was injured and out of action for several months. West Ham wanted more than £85m for their Brazilian.

And his transfer is not being thwarted because of financial disputes.

The thing is quite different – the English Football Association (FA) suspects the player of violating the betting rules. It is noted that his relatives bet on matches with the participation of a football player. If it is possible to prove the guilt of the athlete, then he faces a long disqualification.

Lucas also had Lyon, Milan and Flamengo in his career. He has been called up to the Brazilian national team since 2018. Portal Transfermarkt estimates the market value of the 25-year-old midfielder at 45 million euros. He is under contract with West Ham until 2027.
