Following this news, Manchester United management has expressed their desire to sign Neves and are already preparing for initial talks with the player's representatives.

Head coach of the "Red Devils" Rúben Amorim believes Neves would be a quality reinforcement for the midfield, especially amid rumors of Casemiro's potential departure.

Neves already has Premier League experience, having played for Wolverhampton from 2017 to 2023 before moving to Al Hilal for €55 million. The Portuguese star has since made 106 appearances for the Saudi giants, scoring 30 goals and providing 13 assists.

His current contract with the club runs until the summer of 2026.
