Agent in United talks but Sao Paulo man concentrating on Brazil

Manchester United target Lucas Moura has declared his intention to decide his future after the Olympics. The Sao Paulo attacking midfielder is currently on duty with the Brazil Olympic squad and was an unused substitute in their opening victory over Egypt on Thursday. In the meantime, negotiations with the Red Devils are in the hands of his agent Wagner Ribeiro who has been instructed to continue discussions despite previously claiming the deal was off. The 19-year-old is leaving that to his agent while he concentrates on the business of trying to win a gold medal with his country. "I am focusing on my team, Sao Paulo and in Brazil's national team at the moment. I'll decide my future after the Olympics," Moura told Spanish news agency EFE. "It's already a victory to be here. Now I have to be ready for any situation if Mano Menezes believes I have to play."
