Andreas Pereira says Manchester United must play him more – or risk losing him.
The Brazilian youngster has long been tipped for the top and made his senior debut in August 2014, but has since found first-team opportunities hard to come by.
He has largely been restricted to outings in the League Cup and has made just four substitute appearances in the Premier League under Louis van Gaal.
Pereira insists he is committed to the United cause but says the lack of game time is an issue for him, not least because he has ambitions of making Brazil’s squad for the Olympic football tournament in Rio.
The 20-year-old says he is aware of interest from other teams, but that he doesn’t know whether there are plans for him to go out on loan like fellow starlets Adnan Januzaj and James Wilson.
"I’m a United player, [but] I’ve seen in the press that there are various other clubs interested,” he told GloboEsporte.
“I don’t know if United want to loan me out but I’m working hard to get more opportunities. It’s their decision.
“I’m focused on doing my job at United, [but] of course I want to be more visible to those in Brazil. So I need to play more and get more chances.
“Playing in the Olympics is a big dream of mine.”
