Manchester \u00a0United’s D-Day on Lucas Moura set<\/h1>\n

Brazil attacking midfielder Lucas Moura has reiterated that he will not make a decision on his future until after the Olympics, following reports linking him with Manchester United.<\/p>\n

Lucas, 19, is currently in the United Kingdom with Brazil’s Olympic football side and made a substitute appearance at Old Trafford on Sunday as the side beat Belarus 3-1 to progress to the quarter-finals.<\/p>\n

Sao Paulo president Juvenal Juvencio has insisted he has no intention of selling Brazil star Lucas Moura.<\/p>\n

Sir Alex Ferguson has insisted that United are going to get Moura and the clubs are working towards a deal.<\/p>\n

Ferguson, who has already added midfielders Shinji Kagawa and Nick Powell to his squad this summer, admitted Lucas is among his remaining targets during the Red Devils’ pre-season trip to China.<\/p>\n

He told a press conference: “We have shown an interest, but until such time we get a deal agreed, we can’t say he’s our player.”<\/p>\n

At \u00a326 million deal being reported, it is not a done deal yet.<\/p>\n

It is reported that Manchester United have had a \u20ac36 million bid rejected for the Sao Paulo youngster, with the Brazilian club holding out for \u20ac40 million.<\/p>\n

After the game at Old Trafford, Lucas told ESPN Brasil: “At the moment I’m a S\u00e3o Paulo player and I’m focused on the Olympics.<\/p>\n

“I don’t want to worry about this. If I am meant to leave now, it will happen. Otherwise, I’ll remain calm because I’m still very young.<\/p>\n

“After the Olympics are over, I’ll decide. If I stay at Sao Paulo, I’ll be happy because it’s the club where I started my career.”<\/p>\n

Lucas Moura has already made 15 appearances for his country, scoring once in a victory over Argentina.<\/p>\n[media id=561 width=610 height=340]\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
