The 24-year-old was heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford four years ago before he joined the Ligue 1 club for £38m.
Wagner Ribiero, the Brazilian’s agent, believes that Jose Mourinho will renew United’s interest in his client, having chased him during his time at Real Madrid.
"Who called Lucas Moura there [to Real Madrid]? It wasn't Florentino Perez who wanted Lucas Moura, it was Mourinho.
"Mourinho was and is passionate about Lucas Moura. So much so that now at Manchester he wants Lucas as well."
Moura, a regular in Unai Emery’s side, has made a bright start to the current season, scoring five goals in just seven starts.
The Brazil international has made a total of 181 appearances for Paris Saint-Germain since joining from Sao Paolo in January 2013.
Moura has won the Ligue 1 title with the club every season following his arrival, as well as two Coupe de Frances.
