Biography
A talented soccer player was born in 1992 on August 13 in Brazil, Sao Paulo. In a country where football is a real cult, Lucas, like all the boys, started chasing the ball from childhood and dreamed of becoming a real star. From the age of six he was already studying at the football academy. The boy really wanted to play this sport and tried to show his talents to the maximum. But before he was scouted by professional clubs, he changed more than one school.
In 2002, he was noticed by breeders of the famous Brazilian club Corinthians. He spent three years at the academy of this team, after which he moved to another eminent club São Paulo. Upon reaching adulthood, Lucas immediately concluded his first professional contract with the team.
Career
In his first adult club, Moura spent three seasons. After successful appearances for the youth team, the coach recommended transferring him to the main team. But the head coach of “São Paulo” did not see anything outstanding in the player, and at first Lucas did not get enough playing practice.
Everything changed when the team was led by another specialist - Paulo Cesar Carpezhiani. Under the new manager of the club, Lucas began to get into the composition more often, and then completely consolidated in it. Over the three fruitful seasons, the talented footballer appeared 128 times on the field and scored with 33 goalings. In 2012, Lucas won the first serious trophy. Sao Paulo won the South American Cup.
In 2013, the guy became interested in scouts of the famous French club Paris-Saint-Germain. For Lucas, this was a new challenge and at the same time a step forward in the career of a football player. The first season in the team, he rarely appeared in the starting clip, the club had very high competition and, in order to gain a foothold in the start, he had to try very hard. Moura managed to break through to the base, and from the next season he regularly appeared on the field. In total, the player played 172 matches, scoring goals 26 times.
Despite the fact that the contract with PSG was calculated until 2019, during the winter transfer window Tottenham Hotspur announced the transfer of Lucas Moura to the Spurs, and he spent the rest of the season in an English club. Since the start of the 18/19 season, Moura regularly appears on the field. The contract with the team is calculated until 2023.
Since 2010, he has also played for the national team of Brazil. For her, he played 31 matches and already won the Confederations Cup in 2013.
