MU joins the race for the signature of "little Pele"

Young talent Neymar is creating a real fever in the transfer market. A series of European giants are waiting to hunt for the signature of this 19-year-old striker. Manchester United is the latest name to express their desire to have the service of the striker from the land of Samba.

The streets of Brazil have always been the cradle of outstanding talents in the football world. In the past, it was Garrincha, Pele or more recently, the time of Romario, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho or Kaka'. And now the hottest name that Brazilian football has just produced is none other than Neymar.

Neymar is very hot in the land of fog

At just 19 years old, Neymar has been an indispensable pillar in his hometown club Santos, scoring 59 goals in 116 appearances. This young talent is also gradually making a name for himself in the national team with an impressive record of 3 goals in 3 appearances for the yellow-green team. Most recently, Neymar scored a double in Brazil's 2-0 victory over Scotland in a series of friendly matches that took place last week. It is this impressive form that is making it impossible for a series of giants to ignore this striker nicknamed "little Pele".

Chelsea is the club that has been chasing Neymar's signature the most in the last two transfer windows. However, after spending up to 70 million pounds in the last winter transfer window without seeing much results from new players like Torres or David Luiz, President Abramovich seems to be a bit more cautious. Right after Chelsea showed indecisiveness, Neymar expressed his desire to join Barcelona, ​​but with a fee of 40 million pounds to buy back Neymar's contract with Santos, it seems that this deal is very difficult to succeed because President Sandro Rosell himself once declared that he would not spend 40 million pounds to recruit Fabregas (and if he did not spend 40 million pounds to buy F4, then surely Barca would never spend that amount of money to recruit a player like Neymar).

The difficulty in approaching the Brazilian striker of Chelsea and Barcelona has opened up an opportunity for Man Utd. Most recently, according to the Sunday Express, Sir Alex Ferguson has expressed his desire to bring Neymar to Old Trafford in the summer transfer window. The price of 40 million pounds is quite high for a 19-year-old talent like Neymar, but if MU is successful this season, the "Red Devils" board of directors can completely accept this price. Moreover, rumors surrounding Dimitar Berbatov's departure appear more and more, which is also the basis to believe in the possibility that MU wants to recruit a striker like Neymar.

It is known that Sir Alex Ferguson has a very good relationship with Neymar's representative - Wagner Ribeiro and with the recent "Brazilization" movement at Old Trafford, it is not known whether "little Pele" will arrive at the "Theatre of Dreams" in the next summer transfer window.
