“I have made my choice” Liverpool join Manchester United in race to sign player with €120m release clause

“I’ve made up my mind” The same player, who has a €120 million release clause, is being pursued by both Liverpool and Manchester United.
It is unclear if the club’s new owners will make the necessary squad investments that Manchester United needs to make this summer.

Taking over Old Trafford’s football operations and 25% of the club, Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s INEOS now has total control over United’s market activity.

From the looks of things, Erik ten Hag will stay in charge after this season, but it’s not clear how he’ll work with Dan Ashworth and Omar Berrana.

The past two summer transfer windows have seen Ten Hag identify targets and provide the club with instructions to close deals. Regarding the success rate, there have been questions.

Ten Hag’s top priority for this summer seems to be reorganizing the midfield. Ten Hag doesn’t have many options in that regard, but Kobbie Mainoo has shown himself to be a talented player the team can develop around.

Joao Neves, the midfielder for Portugal’s Benfica, has established himself as one of Europe’s best players this season, and rumors of a move to United have surfaced in the press.

Neves, a teenager who plays frequently for Benfica, recently made his debut in the first team of Portugal; it is likely that the teenager will be included in the team for EURO 2024.

It is now being reported that Liverpool has entered the race to sign Neves, rivaling United’s interest in the player.

According to Sport Witness, the Portuguese publication O Jogo claims that Liverpool, along with United and Chelsea, is now vying for his signature.

Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain are also mentioned as possible interested parties. Liverpool will be the only team in the Premier League to offer Champions League football the following season.

This season, Neves has made 27 league appearances for Benfica, starting 22 of them.

Before going on a spending spree, United will probably need to sell off some of its unwanted stars. Though he may return to Borussia Dortmund on loan, Jadon Sancho is the most valuable asset.
