Manchester United have reportedly had a £51 million bid rejected for Benfica’s 19-year-old midfielder Joao Neves. Bruno Fernandes, who has backed Neves to make the transfer, believes his international teammate has the potential to thrive at Old Trafford.
Neves has been impressive for both club and country, and United are keen to secure his services before he potentially shines at Euro 2024. Despite United’s interest and initial offer of €60 million, Benfica are holding out for at least €100 million (£85 million).

Bruno Fernandes has spoken highly of Joao Neves on multiple occasions, first addressing the possibility of his Manchester United transfer last November. In an interview with Sport TV, Fernandes praised Neves as a great player and a professional individual with a bright future. He expressed his desire to have Neves by his side at United, while acknowledging that the decision ultimately rests with the coach.
Neves has continued to impress in Portugal, winning the Primeira Liga’s Midfielder of the Month award six times last season, further fueling transfer speculation. During the March international break, Fernandes reiterated his belief in Neves’s readiness for a big move, highlighting the interest from major clubs as a testament to his quality.
