Ten Hag smiles, Portuguese gem who promises to be the new Cristiano Ronaldo is close to United

Erik Ten Hag and Manchester United would like to keep adding key players to the team, but not only that, they are also looking for young players who can develop with the club's mentality and become the great players that United are looking for.

During this transfer market, there has been talk of several youth stars that could come to the club, others who have already renewed with United as is the case of Kobbie Mainoo; the young player for which the Red Devils would have bet and would be a very important project to see; however, this is not the only player that Man Utd wants for the future, according to European media there would be another player available that the club plans to sign.

The Portuguese, Joao Neves is the preferred option for Ten Hag, although his position is that of midfielder and as we know with the new addition of Mount to the team, along with Fernandes and Casemiro is a role that would already be very populated, even so the project with Neves would not be done immediately, United would have to take him little by little, so that his time at the club can be long lasting. 

Also, the cost of the Portuguese midfielder would be one of the options for which they could sign him, according to a latest update, the market value of Neves would be 10 million, this is a somewhat low valuation if we take into account the potential that the player has, for that reason Ten Hag seeks to bring him to United. 

He would follow in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo

The Benfica midfielder, has many suitors, his great ability and potential make him a jewel that several clubs would like to have, the main contender for Neves is Manchester United who have already shown interest in the player, however, Bayern Munich could be in the discussion to get the services of Joao and thus try to take another player for which United is interested.
