RED DEVILS SPECIALIST: Bruno Fernandes establishes a SPECIAL relationship with Joao Neves – Portugal’s future and Man Utd’s number 1 goal.
Ever since their arrival in the Portuguese team, these two talented footballers have shared a deep camaraderie, both on and off the field. Bruno Fernandes, the renowned Man Utd star, has found in Joao Neves a successor who not only possesses exceptional skills but also shares his passion for the game.
Their friendship goes beyond the usual teammates’ dynamics. They often joke around, bringing laughter and joy to the team’s atmosphere. Alongside their banter, they engage in deep discussions about tactics, constantly seeking to improve their understanding of the game. Their shared dedication and hunger for success have allowed them to forge a remarkable partnership that translates into their performances on the pitch.
Their relationship acts as a testament to the power of friendship in the world of sports. As they continue to thrive individually and as a team, their bond will undoubtedly play a crucial role in their future success.
M.U captain Bruno Fernandes highly appreciates Neves’ talent and believes that this 19-year-old midfielder can develop strongly in the Premier League. As a teammate of Neves in the Portuguese national team, Fernandes also revealed that the young star is being pursued by many teams, not just the Red Devils.
Recently, Bruno Fernandes spoke out in support of Joao Neves moving to Man United and said that this young player is ready to take the next step in his career.
“I don’t know if the rumors with Man United are true. But I know he’s ready for a big leap. He’s a great player. He is playing for the national team. That’s also the reason why big teams pursue him.”

M.U showed seriousness and offered Neves the highest offer compared to competing clubs. However, to be able to negotiate with Benfica, M.U was forced to raise the price in the next offer. Meanwhile, Neves himself also wants to leave the Portuguese National Championship to join a bigger and more ambitious club than Benfica.
Benfica, after rejecting an offer of £51 million for Joao Neves from Man Utd, offered the asking price of £85 million.
This season, Joao Neves has started for Benfica on a regular basis. In 45 games across all competitions, he recorded two goals and two assists. From a player occupying the defensive midfield position, those are commendable efforts. As a result, Benfica is only one point behind Sporting, the top team in the Portuguese championship, in second place.
Because of his strong play, the 19-year-old was called up to the Portuguese national squad in October 2023. Neves played in the team’s first-ever game against Bosnia & Herzegovina.
