Why the €222m former Barcelona superstar is the man to make Manchester United great again

Why Neymar Is The Man To Make Manchester United Great Again

It has been really hard for Manchester United to rise back among the European elites in these last few years. Ever since the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson retired, the Red Devils have been highly mediocre in terms of their performances in the Premier League, often being overwhelmed by their league rivals.

And even though Manchester United are having their best season in the post-Ferguson era this campaign, the Manchester giants are still nowhere near to regaining their status as a European giant, which was clearly evident when they were knocked out by Sevilla in the UEFA Champions League earlier this month.

However, Manchester United have always been among the busiest clubs in the transfer market, regardless of their inconsistent performances in the Premier League. But despite the acquisitions of world-class players such as Alexis Sanchez, Paul Pogba and Romelu Lukaku in recent times, the Red Devils are still failing to rise back among the European elite.

But that being said, there is, however, one player, who can definitely turn the complexion of this Manchester United team.

Neymar, who is widely regarded as the third best footballer on the planet by many fans and experts alike, might once again be on the verge of completing another lucrative move in the upcoming summer after reports suggested that the Brazilian is apparently unhappy at the club.

The former Barcelona sensation joined the club last summer for an astonishing fee of €222m, making him the most expensive player in the history of football. Even though he has performed really well during with his time with the French giants, Neymar isn’t particularly happy with their performances in the Champions League.

Real Madrid have been credited with an interest in signing Neymar this summer, with Manchester City also interested. But according to recent reports, Manchester United are also in the race to sign the Brazilian attacking sensation this summer.

Blessed with phenomenal attacking qualities, Neymar can easily make an instant impact for Manchester United should the Red Devils to pull off a massive deal for the 25-year-old. Easily one of the most talented footballers on the planet, Neymar’s addition to Manchester United will not only boost their rather toothless attack but will also show a sign of intent from the Manchester giants.

Although head coach Jose Mourinho has been largely criticised for his defence-oriented style of play, the former Barcelona star is way too talented and will, therefore, thrive in any condition.

His remarkable pace and incredible ball skills make him one of the most fearsome attackers in the world and that would definitely benefit the Red Devils who will be looking to finally make a push for the title for the first time since the departure of their revered head coach Sir Alex Ferguson.
