Man Utd target poised to sign three-year deal
MANCHESTER UNITED’S hopes of signing Neymar have been dashed, according to reports.
Neymar looks set to commit his future to Barcelona
The Red Devils submitted a world-record £140million bid for the Brazilian superstar last summer.
Talks have been dragging out over a new deal for the 24-year-old, prompting speculation he could leave the Nou Camp.
However, according to Goal, club and player have come to a pre-contract agreement.
It is thought Neymar will sign a three-year contract extension, keeping him with the Catalan giants until 2021.
