A British club, Manchester United have sent shockwaves round Camp Nou as they are set to launch a £173million move with £416,000-a-week contract offer for the Brazilian icon and Barcelona star Neymar Jr.

According to different reports in Brazilian and Spanish media outfits, the Great Britain's richest and most successful club is set to trigger Neymar's release clause (£173million) during the Summer window transfer. This is coming as club manager, Jose Mourinho is in search of an elite signing that will move the club to new summit as the futures of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Wayne Rooney remain unclear.

Neymar has enjoy much respect in Barcelona but has never been seen in the same light as Lionel Messi, but will obviously be an automatic leader at Manchester United and will enjoy a god-like status at the club, despite his age (25).

Neymar also knows that the £416,000-a-week salary can't be rivalled by Barcelona or even other English clubs like Man City and Chelsea, but has let his agent knows that he will not move to a club that would not be playing champions league football.

Neymar is also aware that he is very doubtful to win the Ballon D'or while playing alongside with Lionel Messi in the same team and foresees England as a good destination, which could also improve his marketing potential.

Mourinho’s men currently face an arduous task of making the top four in the Premier League, except winning the Europa League which would automatically earn them a spot in the UEFA champions league next season.
