Manchester United handed boost in chase of Fabinho as Monaco ace says PSG have not been in contact
Brazilian has yet again impressed for the Ligue 1 club with United and PSG set to go head-to-head for his services in the summer
MANCHESTER UNITED have been boosted in their chase of Fabinho as the Monaco star admits there has been no contact from PSG.
Old Trafford boss Jose Mourinho is looking for a new wing-back in the summer and the £45million-rated Brazilian fits the bill.
But they face stiff competition from moneybags PSG but Fabinho, 24, told reporters they are yet to make a move and he is only thinking about finishing the season with Monaco.
Fabinho said: "Speaking the truth, I have had no contact with any team and I do not even care at the moment.
"I'm concentrating on finishing the season well at Monaco and then, when it's time, I'll sit down with the club and if I have to listen to any proposal, we'll listen."
United have been linked with Fabinho since his incredible 2016/17 season where his ten goals and four assists helped Monaco to the Ligue 1 title and Champions League semi-final.
