Manchester United might make a summer move for Chelsea target and PSG star Neymar if the club is taken over by a wealthy owner such as Sheikh Jassim, according to Sky Sports journalist Dharmesh Sheth.
The winger, who joined Les Parisiens in 2017 for a record-breaking £193m transfer fee, occasionally showed flashes of his talent.
However, he was unable to assist the club in attaining their primary goal of winning the Champions League.
The Brazilian has recently faced criticism at Parc des Princes, and PSG supporters have made it obvious that they do not want to see the 31-year-old back in the French capital for the upcoming campaign.
Therefore, ahead of the summer window, rumors about Neymar’s future are starting to surface.
It seems major Premier League clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea are trying to sign the forward, taking advantage of his current situation.
Neymar is anticipated to leave PSG at the end of this season, according to Sheth, who was speaking to GiveMeSport.
Neymar is ready to leave PSG this summer despite still having four years remaining on his contract, sources tell @LaurensJulien.

The journalist also claims that if Manchester United were to be purchased by Sheikh Jassim before the summer transfer window, they may try to sign the forward this summer since the Qataris might want to recruit a star player like the South American to win over United supporters.
Neymar is an extremely talented player and is deemed one of the best players in the world.
So, he would be a great coup for Man Utd or Chelsea if either club manage to secure his signature this summer. Neymar is valued at around £61m by Transfermarkt.
However, the South American has been criticised for his lack of discipline and has been struggling with injury problems over the last few years.
