Manchester United are ready to go all out for a Brazilian superstar, while AC Milan are set to bid €100m for a Real Madrid star, according to Sunday’s European papers.

 

MAN UTD PREPARE €300m GALACTICO MOVE

Manchester United are ready to launch a stunning €300million bid to land PSG star Neymar, according to a report.

Neymar left the Nou Camp for £200m to join the Parisians in 2017, but has been repeatedly linked with an exit after reportedly becoming unsettled.

A recent statement from Barcelona’s president appears to have opened the door for Manchester United to make a move for the attacker this summer.

The Red Devils were strongly linked with a move for Neymar earlier in the month, and would make a real statement if they managed to land the brilliant Brazilian.

Neymar himself has hinted that he would relish the chance to play in England one day.

“It’s a big competition. One of the greatest in the world,” Neymar said on a YouTube video, as quoted by Goal, back in December.

“We don’t know how tomorrow will be, but I believe that every great player, at least one day, has to play in the Premier League.”

Now, a stunning report from Don Balon suggests that United are ready to do whatever it takes to beat competition from Real Madrid to land Neymar.

Real and United are apparently the only two possible destinations for the former Santos star, but Los Blancos president Florentino Perez does not want problems with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi.

Moreover, the Ed Woodward and Co. are reportedly “willing to do everything and prepare an offer close to 300 million euros”.
