Coral’s Rumour Reel: Man Utd want Mour, Chelsea chase Alex

Moura move to Man Utd on?

Manchester United, 4/1 with Coral to win the Premier League, are reportedly keen to bring PSG’s Lucas Moura to Old Trafford.

Having almost signed the Brazilian four years ago, a deal could be resurrected with Louis van Gaal on the lookout for a pacey wideman.

Reports in France say that Man Utd and a host of other Premier League clubs such as Chelsea and Manchester City are monitoring the situation.

Moura actually passed a medical with United before PSG swooped, so the club should be confident that this area of the deal process should go smoothly and the 23-year-old would link up with fellow new Old Trafford signings Anthony Martial and Memphis Depay in attack, should he join, in what would be an intriguing prospect.

Teixeira tempting Blues

From one Brazilian to another, and Shakhtar Donetsk attacking midfielder Alex Teixeira is said to be in advanced talks with Chelsea to sign for the Premier League champions.

It is understood that the Blues are set to make a £30m bid in January in an attempt to secure his signature and kickstart their season, with Jose Mourinho’s side lacking spark this campaign.
