Neymar makes Man Utd transfer stance clear after being given Arsenal alternative

Neymar would prefer to complete a sensational summer transfer move to Manchester United instead of joining Arsenal.

The Brazilian superstar, 31, is set to be auctioned off by Paris Saint-Germain, who feel that the time is right to part ways with Neymar after six years together. Having made the decision to leave Barcelona in 2017 for a world-record €222million (£198m), the talented forward has struggled with injuries in recent seasons and PSG are keen to recoup a fee before his lucrative contract expires in 2025.

But Neymar is more stringent regarding his hotly-debated future, as it's been reported that he only sees himself playing for United or PSG next term. Despite links to Arsenal in recent days, French outlet Foot Mercato suggest that the 31-year-old is salivating over the prospect of strutting his stuff at Old Trafford, although he'd be happy to stay put at the Parc des Princes.
