Amid an investigation into possible involvement with sports betting, the player is experiencing uncertainty in English football and is at risk of being banned from the sport. The decision on the athlete's future should be announced by June.
He wasn't feeling well..."
According to manager Graham Potter, the Brazilian has been dealing with emotional difficulties due to the case. " It's been a very difficult week for him personally, which I think everyone can understand. And as a result of that, he wasn't feeling well the day before the game against Manchester United and also during the game," said the West Ham manager in a press conference.
PLAYER RECEIVES CARD IN ANOTHER DISCREET PERFORMANCE
The coach chose to leave Paquetá on the bench for the match against Nottingham Forest this Sunday (11). “ I didn't want to take any risks and make things worse for him . But he trained very well, he wants to help the team and we'll see how we use him this weekend against Forest", explained Potter. Paquetá came on in the second half, in the 58th minute, replacing Guido Rodríguez, but had a discreet participation in the 2-1 defeat.
The Brazilian received another yellow card , a recurring situation that has led to investigations into possible manipulations. The incident was considered controversial, and Paquetá almost got sent off.

During his participation in the program Bate Pronto , on Jovem Pan , commentator Vampeta commented on Pedro 's situation at Flamengo . The center forward, who recently returned to the field after recovering from a cruciate ligament injury, has not yet played 90 minutes under coach Filipe Luís . According to the former midfielder for the Brazilian National Team , the coaching staff is right to be cautious in using the number 9.
There's a lot of recurrence when you have this cruciate injury..."
"I agree with Filipe Luís, you have to be a little calm . I had this cruciate injury, it's a very serious injury. Calleri, for example, will be out for a year. There's a lot of recurrence when you have this cruciate injury. Pedro has already had it for the second time. So, he's coming back, you have to be a little calm . The season is really long," said Vampeta.
Pedro returned to the pitch in Flamengo 's 2-1 defeat to Central Córdoba at Maracanã in the Libertadores. Since then, the striker has shown his decisive power, scoring four goals . Despite this, he is still the team's third top scorer in 2025: Bruno Henrique has six goals , while the leader of the ranking is Arrascaeta , with ten .
"YOU HAVE TO HAVE PATIENCE", SAYS VAMPETA
Vampeta, who has already faced the same type of injury during his career , highlighted the physical and emotional challenge of recovery, reinforcing the importance of a progressive approach.
"Pedro was out of action for almost a year, so I agree with Filipe Luís. We have to keep an eye on him . He will be an absolute starter for this Flamengo, but we have to be patient. It's not just any injury . More than anyone, Pedro knows what it was like, in his career, to be out of action for two years and, every day, go to the club for physiotherapy, to recover," he added.
NEXT APPOINTMENT
Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (18), when they face Botafogo , at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, in a classic valid for the Brazilian Championship. Pedro, even in the reconditioning phase, should be related and start on the bench.
