Manchester United and PSG Compete for Star Player Neves

Premier League giant Manchester United and French club PSG are going head-to-head for star player Neves. According to Portuguese outlet A Bola, Manchester United offered Benfica 60 million euros (£50 million / $65 million) for Neves during the summer transfer window. However, PSG submitted a higher bid of 70 million euros (£59 million / $76 million) for the player.

Manchester United’s Pursuit of Neves

Manchester United has been interested in signing Neves since the end of the season. However, Benfica’s high asking price of 120 million euros (£110 million / $130 million) has deterred the Red Devils. The Portuguese club is not willing to negotiate on the price for the 19-year-old player.

PSG’s Offer

PSG has made a bid of 70 million euros for Neves, trying to gain the upper hand in the transfer race. However, this high price tag makes the transfer challenging for both clubs.

Benfica’s New Contract Plan

Benfica is considering offering Neves a new contract this summer. The young player currently earns an annual salary of approximately 500,000 euros, and the club aims to increase this to 1 million euros. Neves’ high value at Benfica complicates matters for Manchester United and PSG. For both clubs, a potential transfer this summer seems unlikely due to the high price tag.

Oh wow, Manchester United and PSG fighting over Neves? What a shocker! I mean, who would have thought that two of the biggest clubs in Europe would want a player? It’s almost like they have money to throw around or something! And Benfica, really? 120 million for a 19-year-old? I guess they’re living in a fantasy land. Can’t wait to see how this soap opera unfolds, because nothing screams ‘competitiveness’ like two clubs outbidding each other over a kid. Bravo, really.

    Honestly, what’s next? Are we going to see PSG offer 100 million just because they can? This whole bidding war is like watching toddlers fight over a toy. It’s just embarrassing at this point. They should just let Neves decide which club he wants to be treated like a superstar by—because we all know that’s what he deserves! Spoiler alert: it’s probably not Manchester United or PSG. 😂

    I can’t even with this transfer saga! The drama is more intense than my favorite reality show! Benfica’s just sitting back and laughing while both clubs throw their money around like it’s confetti at a parade. And let’s be real here—how long until Neves ends up in some random mid-table team because these giants can’t figure out how to negotiate? Classic football, am I right?

Wow, big surprise there—Manchester United being cheap again! Who knew they’d balk at 120 million for Neves after spending all that cash on other flops? I guess it’s easier to cry poor when you’re actually rich but too proud to admit it. Good luck with that strategy; maybe try throwing in some cupcakes as part of the deal next time?

@PSG and Manchester United fighting over Neves is about as predictable as the sun rising in the morning. Just when you think one of them will do something sensible, boom! They’re back to throwing money at kids instead of investing in actual talent. So much for a smart transfer policy when you can just outbid each other until one club cries uncle.

    ‘Oh look at us, we’re so rich!’ Yeah right! If these teams were smart, they’d stop wasting cash on overpriced players who might not even pan out and start focusing on developing young talents instead. But hey, why do that when you can have an endless cycle of high-priced flops?
