Neymar recently released a YouTube video in which he stated that he would one day love the opportunity to play in the Premier League.
The Brazilian superstar currently plies his trade in Ligue 1 with PSG, where he is on a contract worth £537,000-per-week. Given that he also has a huge Transfermarkt valuation of £162 million, it would take a titanic financial effort to bring the 26-year-old to English shores in the near future.
If any Premier League outfit could attract Neymar, though, it is Manchester United.

Given their huge commercial might and vast global fanbase, the Red Devils would likely be capable of mustering up sufficient resources to bring Neymar to Old Trafford.
However, whether that would be a wise move or not is a matter for debate. After all, despite the fact that Neymar is undeniably a phenomenally talented, world-class player, he is not necessarily what Jose Mourinho’s squad currently needs.
Given the weaknesses across the board at Old Trafford at this time, Neymar would represent a sticking plaster solution that wouldn’t address the real issues, and in all likelihood, would bring United no closer to challenging the present dominance of their bitter rivals Manchester City.
However, many United fans are still on board with the notion of bringing Neymar to Old Trafford. Of those who took part in our poll, 64% voted in favour of making 96-cap Brazil international a Red Devil. See the full results below.
