Manchester United reportedly face late competition for Brazil youngster Lucas Moura as Paris Saint-Germain are due to pounce.

The former Premier League champions have been at the centre of a transfer tussle with Sao Paulo for their highly-rated midfielder Moura, with conflicting reports constantly emerging.

The Ligue 1 side, who have already acquired AC Milan duo Thiago Silva and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, are close to signing the 19-year-old on a five-year deal, according to The Metro.

It is believed that Moura's agent began discussions with PSG sporting director Leonardo last week.
