Paris Saint-Germain winger Lucas Moura was left out of the side’s squad to face Amiens amid speculation that he’s set to join Manchester United.

The 25-year-old has made just six appearances under Unai Emery this term and last started a game for the French giants in May.

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho is believed to be keen on signing Moura on loan but PSG want to sell him on a permanent basis to balance the books.

The Brazilian has big money offers on the table from the far-east but his preference is to move to Old Trafford and it appears that his time at PSG is all but over.

Moura chose Paris over Manchester in 2012 when Sir Alex Ferguson believed he had agreed a deal to sign the winger.

United offered £30m for the former Sao Paulo forward but PSG hijacked the move, paying closer to £40m for the rapid wide man.

Mourinho is desperate to add some creativity to his front line and United have made a £25m bid for Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez.

However, the Chilean favours a move to Manchester City where he will work with former boss Pep Guardiola.
