WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Neves has been in demand this summer for multiple clubs after impressing for his club and national team Portugal in the 2023-24 campaign. For Benfica, the youngster appeared in 55 matches across all competitions where he scored thrice and provided two assists.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>It was earlier reported that The Eagles were demanding a massive fee for their young star in the region of €100m (£84m), however, Hawkins claimed that the Ligue 1 giants are expected to pay a sum less than that.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>After sealing Neves' transfer, Les Parisiens are now expected to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/psg-working-hard-compete-nico-williams-transfer-back-foot-barcelona/blta19aefe7023984a0#cs749b07ca9eaf9c7e" target="_self">go after Athletic Club and Spain star Nico Williams</a>. While Barcelona remain a long-time admirer of the winger, it is believed that the French side will go all out for the 22-year-old. </p>
