Tottenham are said to be pushing to sign Lucas Moura.

Lucas Moura #7 of Paris Saint-Germain tries to break away from Radja Nainggolan #4 of AS Roma during the second half at Comerica Park on July 19, 2017 in Detroit, Michigan.

Speculation linking Tottenham Hotspur to winger Lucas Moura has sent the betting markets into overdrive.

Oddschecker report that Tottenham have been slashed from 28/1 to 5/4 on to sign the PSG winger in the last three days.

62 per cent of bets over the last 24 hours on Lucas’ future have been placed on Tottenham.

Manchester United are second favourites at 4/1.

Oddschecker spokesperson George Elek said: “Tottenham are dominating the market when it comes to Lucas Moura’s next club, attracting over 60% of all bets on the Brazilian’s next club.”

Paris Saint-Germain's (PSG) Brazilian midfielder Lucas Moura poses for a photograph at the Camp des Loges training centre in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, west of Paris, on February 08, 2017.

The odds being cut are directly connected to stories emanating from France that Lucas is on Tottenham’s radar.

Le10Sport reported last week that Tottenham have enquired about the winger’s future with a view to landing him on a loan deal.

And this week Telefoot reported that Lucas is keen on a potential move to Spurs, but PSG are keen for a straight sale.

Lucas scored 18 goals in all competitions last season but has barely played this season and is anxious to move on and earn a place in Brazil’s World Cup squad.
