Football: Lucas confirms PSG talks

Manchester United target Lucas Moura confirmed he is likely to join Paris Saint Germain in January with talks ‘well under way’ to take him from Sao Paulo to France, according to ESPN. The Brazilian had been linked with a switch to Old Trafford until the big-spending Ligue 1 club came in with an offer of €45 million this week. “I’ll stay at Sao Paulo until the end of the year,” said Moura. “Things are well underway. I have always said that I want to win a title before leaving and qualify the team for the Libertadores Cup. If I move in January, I’ll be able to do that for Sao Paulo. My move to PSG is well underway, but not done. I talked to Thiago Silva and PSG coach Leonardo, they said many good things about the club, the project they are implementing there.”
