Man Utd interested in Cruzeiro starlet

Manchester United are reportedly plotting a summer move for Cruzeiro midfield sensation Lucas Silva, according to a report.

The 21-year-old plyed his trade for Brazil during this summer's Toulon Tournament, where he scored against England in the group stage before the Selecao eventually went on to lift the silverware.

According to Shoot, the Red Devils boss Louis van Gaal could make a formal enquiry for the talented youngster following the club's failure to clinch a deal for Juventus star Arturo Vidal.

It is also believed that a fee in the region of £12m could be sufficient to seal a deal for the talented youngster.
