Manchester United are fully in pursuit of a central midfielder who will make a difference as the main link between defence and attack. FC Barcelona's Frenkie de Jong is still their primary target (4/7 @ Betfred), while the Red Devils' manager Erik ten Hag stated that the ideal situation would be to have his roster completed as soon as possible. If De Jong's signing does not come to fruition, Wolves' midfielder Ruben Neves is believed to be the next target in pursuit (3/1 @ Betfred).
Who Will Barcelona Replace Neves With?
However, if Man Utd manage to sign De Jong, then it is almost certain that Barcelona will go into the market and try to negotiate with Wolves for Neves (2/1 @ Betvictor). It will not be easy, as the English club has priced the 25-year-old playmaker at £75 million.
Finally, there is a lot of speculation on which club will sign Ruben Neves, as there is a lot of interest in him from other Premier League clubs as well. Arsenal seems to still be in contention (4/1 @ Betfair), while there is also the possibility of Neves staying with his current team for the 2022-23 season.

Betfred is a well-known name among bettors in Britain. It is the epitome of uncomplicated betting, and one of the last UK betting giants still privately owned. The sportsbook was the first to offer a Lucky 15 bet and the first to pay out bettors before a result was guaranteed in 1998. The horse and greyhound racing sections are some of the most complete among online bookies. If you asked me who the best High Street bookmaker is, I would easily tell you, Betfred. However, the transition from shops to online betting has not been so smooth. You can see that most of their business still comes from the High Street, as the platform lacks finesse. The number of markets and payment methods available does not even come close to what the competitors are offering. In addition, for a sportsbook that has been online since 2004 and had a revenue of £10 billion in 2019, the expansion internationally has inexplicably been overlooked. Nonetheless, it is still one of the top options for all the major UK sports.
