Manchester United Eyeing Benfica’s Neves

Manchester United is setting its sights on Benfica midfielder João Neves as a key target for the upcoming summer transfer window. The Red Devils are looking to bolster their midfield and have decided not to make Fiorentina midfielder Sofyan Amrabat’s loan deal permanent. As a result, the 27-year-old Amrabat could be on his way out of Old Trafford, with AC Milan expressing interest in the Moroccan international.

Uncertainty surrounds the futures of Scott McTominay and Christian Eriksen at Manchester United, potentially leading to a significant overhaul in the midfield department. Reports indicate that United has compiled a list of potential midfield targets, including Juventus’ Adrien Rabiot and Monaco’s Youssouf Fofana, alongside João Neves.

However, Neves is believed to be the primary focus of Manchester United’s transfer plans. The 19-year-old has impressed in Liga Portugal this season, making 27 appearances, scoring three goals, and providing two assists. His performances have captured the attention of several top clubs across Europe, with Liverpool and Chelsea also expressing interest in the talented Portuguese midfielder.
