Mourinho Keen On Working With Brazilian Star Player At Old Trafford

According to reports, Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho is ready to bring Brazilian star player Lucas Moura down to Old Trafford on loan from PSG this January.

Moura is surplus to requirements at PSG and has barely featured for the French club this term. He has only made just five appearances as a substitute in the French top flight and another off the bench in the domestic cup.

Paris Saint Germain are set to sell him to any club interested in him, and apart from Manchester United, the talented samba star has also been linked with a move to the Chinese Super League.

But despite Lucas’ current situation at his Paris club, the French heavyweights are not selling him cheaply – and Manchester United are not embracing this.

So, according to reports, they are exploring the possibility of a deal and are looking to sign the Belgium on a loan deal.

However, it was added that Unai Emery’s side are only interested in selling him for £40M. It is said that the player himself prefer a move to Old Trafford over the Chinese Super League.

Back in 2012, Manchester United tried signing him when Sir Alex Ferguson was still boss at the club, but he chose PSG instead.
