After a month and a half of transfer window, PSG may finally make a major acquisition. The French champion club is said to be very close to securing the services of Portuguese midfielder, Joao Neves.
According to the latest rumours circulating, Paris has already agreed on the personal terms of the engagement with the Portuguese prodigy. On the other hand, a formal offer has also been sent to his club Benfica. Its amount has not been disclosed.
PSG alone in the race for Joao Neves
The Lisbon team’s response has not been leaked either. On the other hand, Rui Costa, the president of Benfica, has spoken out about this issue. During an intervention for the media B24, he confided: “I never said that Joao Neves could leave only through his release clause. That’s not true! What I can say is that yes there is a proposal on the table and it is being evaluated.”
The offer in question could only be from Paris. No other club has been as pressing for Joao Neves in recent days. There was indeed interest from Manchester United, but it quickly faded. For their midfield, the Red Devils prefer to bet on Manuel Ugarte, the unwanted of… PSG.
