Manchester
United remain keen to sign Barcelona forward Neymar next summer, according to
Neymar’s agent.
The
Red Devils did make an offer in the summer for the Brazilian and the reports revealed
that Barcelona rejected it by saying that they have no plans to sell their star
player.
The
23-year-old joined Barcelona in 2013 from Brazilian club Santos. He has netted
58 goals in 100 appearances for the La Liga giants.

Neymar’s
father further added that Man United had a big offer for his son but Neymar
said that there was nothing concrete.
Man United boss Louis van Gaal managed to sign Anthony Martial from PSV for a big
amount on the transfer deadline day. But despite of it they are still keen to
sign Neymar.
The
Brazilian is happy at Camp Nou and has no plans to leave Barca in the near future,
however the Premier League side are keeping close tabs.
The attacker has still three years left on his current contract and could be signing a new deal
despite of playing under Lionel Messi’s shadow.
Neymar
who has faced injury problems this season was exceptional for Barca last term,
he netted 39 goals in all campaigns.
