Man United offered to sign Neymar from PSG

Manchester United have been approached by intermediaries about signing Brazil forward, Neymar, from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) this summer.

United are one of a number of clubs who have been contacted about Neymar’s potential availability.

While a deal might make sense from a commercial point of view, he is not currently a United target.

In any case, it is difficult to see how Erik ten Hag’s side would be able to sign him and pay his wages and how he would adapt to playing in the Premier League.

Fans were filmed chanting for the board to resign outside club headquarters before further clips showed a group of supporters visiting the home of Neymar calling for him to move on.

PSG are also set to see Lionel Messi leave at the end of the season, with the Ligue 1 club not planning to offer the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner a new contract.
