Gathering steam: Report suggests that Manchester United might be making a transfer move as an accomplished player is said to be open to filling the midfield void left by Ruben Amorim.
Manchester United could be set to bolster their midfield with the potential return of Portuguese international Ruben Neves, according to reports. Neves, who left Wolverhampton Wanderers for Al Hilal in June 2023 after six years at Molineux, is reportedly open to a return to the Premier League with Manchester United during the January transfer window. The midfielder, who is highly-regarded in Western Europe, could be available for around £17m, making him an attractive prospect for the Red Devils. Amorim, the Manchester United head coach, is said to be a fan of Neves, sharing a Portuguese connection with the player. This interest, coupled with the team's need for midfield reinforcements, has led to speculation that a move for Neves is 'gaining momentum'. However, it's important to note that as of yet, no talks between Neves and Manchester United have been reported. The Red Devils have already added £200 million worth of attacking talent in the summer transfer window, plus goalkeeper Senne Lammens. But with the team under pressure to deliver points and performances as Amorim approaches 12 months in the Man United job, a new midfielder could be on the cards. The potential transfer of Neves could make him an enticing prospect for multiple Premier League clubs, not just Manchester United. But with the January transfer window fast approaching, only time will tell if the Portuguese midfielder will be wearing the red of Manchester United once again. Meanwhile, it's also worth noting that Neves has spent the required time in Saudi Arabia to avoid a huge tax penalty if he were to return to the UK. This could potentially clear the way for a move to Old Trafford, should both parties agree on terms. The failed attempt to lure Brighton and Hove Albion's Carlos Baleba to Old Trafford serves as a reminder that transfer negotiations can be complex and unpredictable. But with the January transfer window just around the corner, fans will be eagerly awaiting updates on any potential deals.
