Manchester United seems to be setting their sights on Benfica’s rising star, Joao Neves. The club has marked Neves as a strategic acquisition, and their recent discussions with Benfica, as reported by Correio da Manha and translated by Sport Witness, indicate a strengthening of ties between the clubs.
The recent transfer of Alvaro Fernandez from Manchester United to Benfica is believed to have paved the way for better negotiation terms for Neves in the future.
The 19-year-old midfielder, who has been showing immense potential, is expected to secure a significant transfer, though his next destination remains uncertain.
Manchester United, under Erik ten Hag’s management, appears to be a suitable fit for Neves. The club is on the lookout for fresh talent to rejuvenate their somewhat ageing midfield, which currently includes players like Casemiro, Christian Eriksen, and Sofyan Amrabat.
With Kobbie Mainoo already making a mark in the first team, the addition of Neves could prove to be a smart move, creating a youthful and dynamic midfield partnership for the future.
