Paris Saint-Germain are said to have joined Manchester United in the pursuit of Benfica youngster Goncalo Guedes. The Portugal international is expected to leave the Primeira Liga outfit before the transfer deadline.
Guedes, 20, has been an influential player for the Portuguese champions this season having featured in all but two league games for the club.
A report from The Record suggested that United could be favourites to sign the player after Benfica president Luis Filipe Vieira was alleged to have held discussions with club officials in London.
However, Les Parisiens now seem to be interested in the attacker after manager Unai Emery confirmed that the player is on their radar.
"All good players are of interest to PSG and Guedes is one," he said in a press conference prior to the Bordeaux game.
"We are working on him and one we have the opportunity to sign. He is a good player, capable of playing wide or in the middle. He is a player of the future who is going to grow a lot."
Guedes, who has been at Benfica since the age of nine, has netted five goals in all competitions for the club this term.
