Neymar is said to have changed his mind about leaving Paris Saint-Germain, despite Luis Enrique being prominently linked with the Ligue 1 winners.

Erik ten Hag is looking to bolster his offensive options and has connected the Brazilian forward with a move away from Parc des Princes to Manchester United.

Chelsea is also rumoured to be interested in Neymar and to have begun conversations with PSG about a possible summer deal.

According to L’Équipe, Neymar’s stance has changed as a result of Luis Enrique’s impending arrival in Paris, and he is now open to rejoining with the former Barcelona coach.

Neymar previously worked with Luis Enrique at Barcelona from 2014 to 2017, when he won the Champions League, as well as two La Liga titles.

In fact, it was Luis Enrique who led Barcelona to their memorable 6-1 win over PSG at Camp Nou in the 2016-17 season, knocking the French champions out of the Champions League, with the Brazilian scoring a late brace.

If Neymar continues to play for PSG, Manchester United may be forced to explore elsewhere in the market. They had hoped to sign Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur, but Daniel Levy is expected to demand a large fee.

Alternative targets like as Napoli’s Victor Osimhen, Benfica’s Goncalo Ramos, Eintracht Frankfurt’s Randal Kolo Muani, and Atalanta’s Rasmus Hojlund are also not cheap, forcing the Red Devils to focus on Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins.
