Everton have been heavily linked with Neres, with speculation only intesifying following his involvement in Ajax's run to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals.
The winger played a part in 27 goals for Ajax last season, scoring 12 - including a goal against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu - and assisting 15.
"I've spoken to him about it already," said the former Watford striker. "I told him the doors are open for him there, and that he could help us a lot.
"I hope he comes. He'd be very welcome there. I've known him since we played together for Brazil's U20 side, and he's a guy I get along with really well. Hopefully I'll see him there."
"Of course the Premier League interests me. It's the best league in the world, and I've always wanted to play there. But I leave all that in God's hands."
