Real Madrid are making a fresh move for Sao Paulo star Lucas Moura. Lucas is the subject of intense interest from Manchester United, where manager Sir Alex Ferguson has openly declared they're attempting to settle on a fee with Sao Paulo for the youngster.

However, El Confidencial says Real are returning to the negotiating table this week for Lucas.

Real president Florentino Perez hosted Lucas' parents at the Santiago Bernabeu last season and is close to the midfielder's agent, Wagner Ribeiro.
