Reds send scouts to watch Brazilian winger
Liverpool have reportedly sent scouts to watch Paris Saint-Germain winger Lucas Moura.
The 23-year-old, who has scored six goals in 29 Ligue 1 games this season, is under contract with the French club until June 2019.
And French outlet Mercato365 claim Liverpool scouts were in attendance during PSG's Champions League last-16 second leg tie with Chelsea earlier this month to watch the Brazilian.
Moura has been linked with a move away from Paris this summer, with Louis van Gaal reportedly keen on signing the former Sao Paulo man at Manchester United.
And the winger has admitted he would love to play in the Premier League.
“It’s a dream for any player having the opportunity to play in the Premier League," he told Squawka last month.
"Everybody knows it is the most competitive league in the world. It’s really great to follow it, as you can’t predict who is going to win the trophy."
In the same interview he also revealed he has already snubbed a move to Old Trafford once in his career, and Liverpool will be hoping he does again this summer.
He added: “It was honestly my choice to join PSG. I have all respect for Manchester United, a great club with more tradition than Paris Saint-Germain, but I really liked the project PSG showed me."
