Football transfer news: Manchester United linked with Brazilian star, Lukaku’s Everton exit possible

Manchester United have once again been linked with Lazio’s Brazilian midfielder Felipe Anderson, who has impressed everyone with his fine performances in Italy.

According to recent reports, the Serie A club have an agreement that will see the midfielder leave for the right price if one of Europe’s top clubs come calling, and Manchester United has been named as a potential destination.

The 22-year-old has performed impressively since his move to the Stadio Olimpico in 2013 for just €7.5 million (AU $11.62 million) from Santos, and is now valued at around €30 million (AU $45 million), although a bid of a similar amount from United was rejected earlier in the summer. Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain have also been named as potential destinations.

The company representing Anderson has also moved quickly to insist that an agreement with United had not been reached, and that he was still fully focused on performing for Lazio.

"Contrary to reports, Felipe Anderson has not agreed a deal to leave Lazio and join anyone else. Felipe is doing well at Lazio and is only focused on doing his best for them," Base Soccer said in a statement to ESPN.

Meanwhile at Everton, the agent of striker Romelu Lukaku has claimed that his client could yet move away from the club if they received a good offer and would not stand in his way.

Interestingly, one of the rumoured clubs targeting Lukaku is Paris Saint-Germain who have the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Edinson Cavani already in their ranks, with the Paris club linked with a €40 million (AU $62 million) move for the striker.

"Lukaku to PSG? We had a discussion with Martinez, he said he would let him leave Everton if a good offer comes in. But talking about the transfer window now makes no sense," Lukaku’s agent Mino Raiola told Get French Football News, as per the Liverpool Echo.
