Mason Greenwood is reportedly going to be used in a trade by Manchester United in order to get an excellent Benfica Wonderkid who is valued at £100 million and might be a potential partner for Kobbie Mainoo when the summer arrives. Can’t believe that 89% of the Manchester United Fans are in support of this 😳
The 19-year-old defensive midfielder for Portugal has showcased remarkable maturity on the field, earning him a place in the Euro 2024 squad.
Benfica is keen to retain their midfielder for at least another season, but if they decide to sell him this summer, they are reportedly asking for up to £100 million.
Acquiring Neves seemed unlikely, as Ratcliffe emphasized that United will not be “held to ransom” during this transfer window.
However, MEN Sport reveals that the Reds might possess an unexpected bargaining chip.
The Portuguese club is among six interested in signing Mason Greenwood this summer. United intends to sell the winger, who spent last season on loan at Getafe, for £40 million.
In theory, United could significantly lower Neves’ price by including Greenwood in the deal.
Suddenly, £60 million for a midfielder with a bright future in football seems very reasonable. With Ineos searching for bargains this summer, this strategy appears quite sensible.
