Spurs step up chase for Lucas Moura

Tottenham Hotspur are stepping up their efforts to sign Brazilian winger Lucas Moura from Paris Saint-Germain, according to L’Equipe.

Spurs are looking to further reinforce their front line and they have been alerted by the availability of the 25-year-old footballer.

Tottenham hope to sign Lucas on loan in the January window, and it remains to be seen whether they would also include a buy-out clause.

Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain would prefer to sell the winger outright this winter, but having received no offers so far, they will probably be forced to consider loan proposals as well.

The two clubs successfully negotiated the transfer of Serge Aurier last summer, and they could now agree another high-profile deal.
