Manchester United look to sign Eduardo Camavinga with PSG pre-occupied over Lionel Messi

Manchester United are looking to take advantage of Paris Saint-Germain's pursuit of Lionel Messi by beating the French side to Eduardo Camavinga's signature.

At just 18, Camavinga is one of the hottest young prospects in world football, having shone in the heart of Rennes' midfield last season.

Despite his young age, Camavinga played 35 times in Ligue 1 and made four Champions League appearances, including against eventual champions Chelsea.
