Paris: Edinson Cavani broke Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s all-time goalscoring record for Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday, tapping in his 157th goal for the club against Montpellier.

The Uruguay striker had levelled the Swede’s previous mark of 156 goals 10 days ago, and turned home Adrien Rabiot’s cutback in the 11th minute at the Parc des Princes.

Cavani celebrated the record by throwing his shirt into the crowd, receiving a booking after shaking hands with the referee and having to take a new jersey from the bench.

It was the 30-year-old’s 27th goal for the Ligue 1 leaders in all competitions this season.

Meanwhile, Out of favour Brazilian Lucas Moura is set to secure a move to Tottenham Hotspur from PSG, British media reported on Saturday.

The 25-year-old winger expressed his sadness to French sports daily L’Equipe earlier this week at being frozen out by PSG as his compatriot Neymar’s arrival from Barcelona has seen him fall down the pecking order.

However, The Sun and the Daily Mirror both claim Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has offered him an escape route -- and Champions League football as he has not played for PSG in the competition this season -- by making a bid of £25 million ($35.4m, 28.5m euros).

The reports said Lucas, has been shown around Spurs’ training facilities and would prefer a move to the Premier League although both Borussia Dortmund and Sevilla have expressed an interest.
