Manchester United has made signing Rúben Neves one of its priorities for next summer. The midfielder will be out of contract if he does not renew with Al Hilal, and the club sees him as an opportunity to seize.

According to journalist Graeme Bailey, Manchester United has been following Neves since his time at FC Porto, before his move to England and Wolverhampton. With his contract at Al Hilal nearing its end, the possibility of a free transfer in 2026 is gaining traction behind the scenes.

André Villas-Boas stated that he would work for Rúben Neves’s return to FC Porto during Diogo Jota’s funeral ceremonies. It remains to be seen whether the midfielder, who came up through the club’s academy, will accept a return to the city of Porto.

Even with ongoing renewal attempts, Rúben Neves favors a return to European football. This season, playing for Al Hilal, he has scored one goal in six matches.
