PSG signing Thiago Silva isn't surprised seeing Manchester United moving for Sao Paulo star Lucas Moura.

Thiago Silva is captain of Brazil's Olympics team and working closely with Lucas.

"I see many possibilities for Lucas to play in English football," said Thiago Silva.

"Despite being a short guy he is really strong and powerful. It is really difficult to stop him.

"In Manchester particularly, they play with two wingers - it used to be Cristiano Ronaldo and now it's Nani. He has the same qualities as these players."
