Sir Alex Ferguson's right-hand man warns Man Utd over signing "prima donna" Neymar

Former Manchester United coach Rene Meulensteen has reservations about Neymar amid reports that the Red Devils are looking at moving for the Brazil star.

Neymar joined Paris Saint-Germain in a world record deal in 2017, but has been linked with a summer departure.

Man Utd boss Erik ten Hag has remained coy on Neymar, amid suggestions talks had begun over a potential swoop. However, Meulensteen - who served as Sir Alex Ferguson's right-hand man during his time with the club - has made no secret of his concerns.
