Manchester United in for Paqueta

Manchester United have joined the race to sign Brazil international Lucas Paqueta, according to the Mail Online.

The highly-rated 21-year-old has also caught the eye of Liverpool and Manchester City after receiving his first senior international call-up this month.

He came off the bench in both the 2-0 friendly win over the United States and the 5-0 demotion of El Salvador four days later.

Paqueta plays his club football for Flamengo and has so far racked up eighty appearances in all competitions, scoring fourteen goals.

He has two years remaining on his current deal with the club and reportedly has a buyout clause of £44m.

Having secured back-to-back victories in the Premier League, Manchester United get their Champions League campaign underway on Wednesday evening with a trip to Young Boys.

The three-times European Champions can be backed at a price of 33/1 to go all the way in the competition this term.
