Lucas Rodrigues Moura da Silva (born 13 August 1992), known as Lucas Moura (Brazilian Portuguese: [ˈlukaz ˈmowɾɐ]),[4] is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a winger and attacking midfielder for Campeonato Brasileiro Série A club São Paulo and the Brazil national team.

His pace and dribbling skills garnered attention from numerous European clubs, eventually earning him a transfer to French side Paris Saint-Germain.

After winning multiple domestic trophies over a five-year span at the club, Moura was then signed by English side Tottenham Hotspur.

After five years with Tottenham, Moura returned to São Paulo in 2023, winning the Copa do Brasil in his first season back at the club.

Moura made his senior international debut for Brazil in 2011 and has since earned over 30 caps, representing the nation at two editions of the Copa América, the 2012 Olympics (where he won a silver medal), and the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup, winning the latter title.

[13] He made his season debut for PSG in their 2–0 Trophée des Champions victory over Coupe de France winners EA Guingamp on 2 August 2014 at the Workers Stadium in Beijing.

[14] He scored his first goal of the 2014–15 Ligue 1 campaign on 16 August, volleying in a Gregory van der Wiel cross as PSG defeated Bastia 2–0.

[17] On 7 August 2015, Moura scored the first goal of the 2015–16 Ligue 1 season in PSG's 1–0 defeat of Lille OSC at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy.

[35] On May 28, the last day of the Premier League season, Moura netted during stoppage time in an emphatic 4–1 win over Leeds United in his final game for the club.

[36] In August 2023, after three months without a club, Lucas Moura returned to São Paulo Futebol Clube, marking his comeback after eleven years.

His signing garnered attention as the biggest move of the winter transfer window in Brazilian football, creating a significant buzz on social media.

[46] On August 16, he had the standout performance of the Copa do Brasil semifinals, helping São Paulo win the return match against Corinthians by 2–0 (3–2 on aggregate).

On August 24, he scored the only goal in São Paulo's 2–1 away defeat to LDU in the Copa Sudamericana, which marked his first appearance in the competition since 2012.

[citation needed] Moura was selected by Luiz Felipe Scolari for the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup on home soil.

[51] In September 2024, six years after his last cap, Moura was called up for the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Ecuador and Paraguay, and claimed that he initially thought it was a prank.

[53][54] Credited as a quick and mobile winger, who is also powerful, creative, and technically gifted,[55] Moura is also known for his explosive acceleration, agility, jumping, and pace – both on and off the ball –, as well as his movement, and his excellent dribbling skills, in particular his use of trickery and feints, which make him a dangerous offensive threat.
