Manchester United are reportedly chasing the loan signature of Brazil international forward Lucas Moura, according to The Sun.

The Premier League side, who defeated Everton 2-0 at Goodison Park on New Year’s Day, have been linked with a move for the out of favour Paris Saint-Germain winger during this month’s transfer window.

The 25-year-old, who has 36 international caps for his country, has scored one goal and provided one assist in just six appearances in all competitions for the Ligue 1 giants so far this season.

Moura, who joined PSG back in August 2012 following his reported £38m switch from Sao Paulo, has scored 46 goals in 229 games overall for Unai Emery’s side, winning four league titles, among other honours, in the French capital.

However, having failed to start a single league game so far this 2017-18 campaign, Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho is keen to bring the Samba star to Old Trafford this January on loan, though PSG may only agree if it leads to a permanent deal worth around £40m this summer.
