Lucas Moura's agent says that the teenager does not want to leave Sao Paolo until after the 2014 World Cup.

Sao Paolo midfielder Lucas Moura does not want to leave Brazil until after the 2014 World Cup, according to his agent.

The 19-year-old has been strongly linked with a move to Chelsea recently, with both Manchester City and Manchester United also said to be monitoring the situation.

Moura's agent, Wagner Ribeiro, revealed that he was a guest at Roman Abramovich's house recently but said that no deal was discussed.

"Lucas doesn't want to go," Ribeiro told ESPN. "He doesn't want to leave Brazil before the 2014 World Cup.

"I was at Roman Abramovich's house with the Israeli businessman Pini Zahavi. If I said that the price was £32m, he would pay it, but there was no proposal because he knows that Lucas wants to stay in Brazil."

Lucas has played 11 times for his country.
