Ratcliffe's Man Utd willing to offer £100m for Neves

The 19-year-old midfielder has emerged as a crucial player in Benfica's midfield following Enzo Fernandez's £105 million transfer to Chelsea.

Manchester United has been monitoring the young midfielder, particularly after his impressive display in Benfica's 2-1 victory over Sporting CP. However, the Portuguese club released a statement denying rumours of his departure in the last transfer window.

The Red Devils will not give up so easily, especially in the coming months as the 19-year-old has not ruled out a possible move in the summer. "I can't promise that I will stay at Benfica next season. My wish for the moment is to stay and then we'll see," he said.

According to 'Sky Sports', British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe is already willing to negotiate with the Portuguese club for the 19-year-old to play for United next campaign. So much so that the Premier League club could offer £100 million for his services.
