In England and France, the media has reported that the Manchester club has initiated conversations with PSG.
The European leagues are coming to a close this summer, and for some, it has been a season of more disappointment than glory. Such is the case for both Manchester teams, with one clinching their third consecutive title while the other finds themselves in fourth place. Looking ahead to the 2023-2024 season, they are determined to improve and put an end to the reign of Pep Guardiola’s squad. In pursuit of this goal, they have set their sights on securing the services of Brazilian superstar Neymar Jr.
According to reports from ‘Varsky Sports’ and ‘Le Equipe’, Manchester United has reached out to the representatives of the former Barcelona player in an effort to bolster their squad. A key figure in Neymar’s inner circle is his compatriot Casemiro, who, according to multiple sources, has been instrumental in convincing the PSG player to join him at Old Trafford. Casemiro himself joined the team last summer under the management of Erik ten Hag.
Manchester United has a substantial 400 million pounds at their disposal for transfers. Therefore, the financial aspect plays a significant role for the ‘Red Devils’, who are prepared to pay a hefty sum to strengthen their team. Neymar is currently under contract with PSG until 2025, earning a monthly salary exceeding $3 million. However, the offer from Manchester United would likely surpass that figure.
The potential acquisition
The potential acquisition of Neymar by Manchester United would undoubtedly a necesary move, his arrival at Old Trafford would not only boost United’s chances of reclaiming the Premier League title but also add a new level of excitement and star power to the team to return to the old glories with Sir Alex Ferguson.
Nonetheless, with their significant financial resources and the allure of playing for a historic club like Manchester United, the ‘Red Devils’ stand as strong contenders in the race to secure Neymar’s services and finish the hegemonic of the other team of Manchester.
