Man united scouts ‘recommend And tells’ Sir Jim Ratcliffe to sign £190m superstar duo this summer

Joao Neves and Antonio Silva have been excellent for Benfica since breaking into the squad and Man Utd could profit

Man Utd’s success next season will hinge on summer transfers, and they have been linked with Antonio Silva and Joao Neves to solvge that.

Benfica duo Silva and Neves have been recommended by United scouts for a potential summer swoop.

However, Financial constraints due to Benfica’s price tag of the duo may pose obstacles in pursuing the talented young pair.

Manchester United’s summer transfer window will be huge in determining how successful they are next season in all competitions – but despite links to Benfica pair Antonio Silva and Joao Neves, financial power could be a stumbling block in their chase for the Youngsters.

United have had a poor season on the field, crashing out of the Carabao Cup and Champions League early doors, and with their Premier League season hitting the brakes with just two wins in their last nine, much is needed ahead of what will be an even more challenging season if they don’t get their recruitment right.

Manchester United’s Window So Far
United have a lot of work to do
The Red Devils will need to sort out their staffing issues before the start of the transfer window, with Dan Ashworth still on gardening leave from Newcastle United after the sporting director announced his intentions to leave St. James’ Park for Old Trafford – and there is the matter of Erik ten Hag’s future to be resolved, with the Dutchman looking likely to be shown the exit door after a poor season.

Regardless, tracks will be made behind the scenes in any case, and United will be looking ahead to next season in another bid to change their fortunes after an underwhelming campaign. And with that in mind, the Old Trafford outfit have been recommended Benfica duo Silva and Neves ahead of a potential summer move – with any bid for them not being ruled out.

The sources have revealed that United scouts have ‘constantly recommended’ Silva and Neves as two options that could come into United’s defence and midfield.

The young duo have been in fine form for Benfica this season, and despite a disappointing campaign on the whole for the Portuguese side, their development will only stand the club in good stead for the future – having previously sold the likes of Joao Felix, Darwin Nunez, Ruben Dias and Ederson for huge fees in the past.
