Please discuss if you think this punishment is too harsh, or if it's appropriate, due to the gravity of the situation.

Also, what is the impact of this case over gambling industry?

Giving a permanent ban as a penalty for a gross misconduct about fix matching is kind of a bigger permanent to be given for such a magnitude of offense. Because considering how the organization may seems to discourage further footballers from engaging in such illegal activity, issuing a permanent ban seems not to be directly proportional for such crime, as a suspension within either 6months or a year would have been better, rather than giving him a permanent ban, which means he can no longer plays football ever again, both national and internationally, which is quite bad.

That situation happened to Paqueta serves a warning to other player not only on soccer but also with other sports that they should not engage with any match fixing activities. Now he faced those harsh decision which a pro player don't want to receive. But he should learn from it since this is the result of his greed since if he didn't participate on such activities for sure he won't encounter this kind of failure.

What a waste of opportunity and he just exchange his career for some amount of money. For sure he can earn the amount he get if he play fair and didn't participate on such illegal activity.
