Unai Emery confirms Lucas Moura free to leave Paris Saint-Germain

Paris Saint-Germain manager Unai Emery has confirmed that winger Lucas Moura is free to leave the club to find more playing time.

The comments come after Moura, who has been unable to secure game time at the Parc des Princes, was linked with Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur earlier this month.

The Brazilian is unable to assert his presence in the team ahead of the likes of Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani, and former Sevilla boss Emery has revealed that the situation is unlikely to change.

"I told Lucas what I thought, with all due respect to him. He no longer has the opportunity to have playing time in Paris and he will have more elsewhere," the manager told a press conference.

Valencia are also understood to have joined the race for the 25-year-old, who PSG could let go of for around £35m.
