Lucas: I want to stay, but it depends on PSG

Lucas Moura wants to stay at Paris Saint-Germain and fight for his place, but admits he will be helpless if the club do not want to keep him.

Lucas has progressively made more starts in Ligue 1 since arriving from Sao Paulo in 2013, but he only played the full 90 minutes on 10 occasions in the previous top-flight campaign.

"I keep the same mentality to help the team. I want to play and start, as all players do. I'm not different," Lucas told L'Equipe.

"I'll give everything to start. There will be competition but I can help the team a lot.

"No [I haven't thought about leaving], I'm happy here. I love the club and Paris. I have said I want to stay here and write my story, but it also depends on the club.

"If they want me to stay, I will stay."

"He is very interested in position the team tactically and physically. It is important to work on the tactical system of the team," said the Brazilian.

"It was a problem for me before, and now I think we will be more organised on the pitch."
