According to Yahoo Sports in Brazil, Manchester United have offered Ajax €50 million for Neres's services.
The Brazilian winger has been offered a new, improved deal by Ajax in an attempt to tie him down.
However, United's interest has reportedly turned the player's head – but their efforts may be thwarted by the Dutch club raising their valuation of the player to €70m.
