Manchester United have reportedly decided against pursuing a move for Newcastle United midfielder Yohan Cabaye.

The North-West outfit are said to have been monitoring the Frenchman, who was the subject of a rejected Arsenal bid in the summer, over the course of the season.

However, it is understood that United manager David Moyes has been put off by Newcastle's asking price of at least £20m, according to the Northern Echo.

Reports have claimed that Paris Saint-Germain are now favourites to sign the midfielder.
