In the latest transfer news, Manchester United will reportedly bid for Ruben Neves now that Wolves are on the verge of signing Joao Palhinha. Erik ten Hag knows the club needs reinforcements in the middle of the park in order to challenge for the Premier League title. And it appears the Red Devils are upping the ante when it comes to bringing in fresh faces.

Manchester United have already confirmed the departures of Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic.

And that's left Ten Hag with just Donny van de Beek, Scott McTominay, Fred, Bruno Fernandes and James Garner as options for the middle of the park.

Now, with Wolves closing in on Palhinha, 90min journalist Rob Blanchette has claimed United will bid for Neves.

Taking to Twitter, he said: "#MUFC will take advantage of Joao Palhinha's expected arrival at Wolves to trigger their offer for Ruben Neves.

"United have scouted Palhinha but won't compete for the player's signature if Wolves agree a price for their Portuguese midfielder."

Neves has been strongly linked with a move to Barcelona.

However, they lack the financial muscle to strike a deal at the current moment in time.

Barcelona are instead looking at free agents, while they're also eager to sign Robert Lewandowski from Bayern Munich.

United, however, can boost their rivals' transfer kitty if they're able to seal a deal for Frenkie de Jong.

De Jong previously played under Ten Hag at Ajax, helping the Dutch side reach the semi-finals of the Champions League three years ago

Frenkie de Jong has been handed another incentive to join Manchester United following the news that Barcelona will reportedly slash his wages should he continue with the cash-strapped Catalan club into next season. The Dutchman is one of a number of Barcelona players being targeted for a wage cut by the Spanish giants who continue to find themselves crippled by a financial crisis.
