Manchester United Eye Three Benfica Players

Manchester United are planning to spend big on the Portuguese market, according to a number of media outlets in Portugal.

The report claims that the Manchester United are eyeing a massive £228 million triple raid on Benfica, targeting Joao Neves, Antonio Silva, and Fredrik Aursnes.

Despite needing to offload players before adding new recruits, Manchester United are reportedly preparing to submit offers for the Benfica trio after Euro 2024.

This suggests that Manchester United must expedite their selling of the likes of Martial and others to accommodate these potential signings.

Joao Neves, a standout talent, has a release clause exceeding £100 million, though Manchester United may attempt to negotiate a lower fee.

Antonio Silva, a name already linked with United, continues to draw interest, while Fredrik Aursnes emerges as a new addition to the transfer speculation.

Reports suggest United’s transfer budget stands at a modest £50 million, making the proposed £228 million outlay on Portuguese league players seem improbable.
