Man United ahead of PSG and Liverpool to agree signing of £102million outstanding Benfica Wonderkid
Joao Neves is a wanted midfielder in the market and as per reports, Man Utd lead in the race to secure his signing this summer.
The Old Trafford side have already moved in with a proposal worth 60 million euros but need a bigger fee to get the deal over the line.
As per A Bola, Paris Saint-Germain are now pushing to lure the 19-year-old play breaker as well.
The news source have mentioned that the French champions have not yet come up with an offer but they must do so at the earliest to beat the competition from English clubs, especially Man Utd, who are at ‘the head’ to sign Neves.
His current contract with Benfica still have four years left and he is protected by a huge release clause of 120 million euros.
However, as per the Portuguese media outlet, the Eagles want to agree a total sum of £84.7million (100 million euros) to sell the player.
He has already won two major titles in Portugal, including the Liga Nos trophy in 2022-23, and the “quality” star is now in Germany for the Euros.
The Seleccao will kick start their European Championships campaign against Czech Republic on Tuesday night and it will not be surprising if Man Utd scouts are present to watch Neves.
With Casemiro past his best and Amrabat set to return to Italy, the Red Devils must secure a top No.6 for the next season
