Bayern Munich is reportedly interested in signing Rúben Neves from Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia. The German giants are among several clubs monitoring Neves’ situation, with his contract set to expire this summer.
According to Spanish media, Bayern Munich has held informal talks with Neves’ representatives, joining Manchester United, Atlético Madrid, and Juventus in the pursuit of the midfielder.
Al Hilal has reportedly offered Neves a new contract until 2028, complete with a significant pay increase, which may sway him to stay. However, there’s a gentleman’s agreement that could allow Neves to leave in 2027.
Neves, 28, has been in impressive form for Al Hilal, with 12 goals and 25 assists in 103 appearances. A transfer fee of around €20 million is being discussed, and Neves could negotiate with other clubs without consent.
There are reports that Neves is keen on a Premier League return, which could influence his decision. Bayern Munich sees him as a valuable midfield addition, given his experience and tactical prowess.
Despite Al Hilal’s offer, Neves hasn’t made a decision, keeping options open. His contract situation makes him an attractive prospect for clubs looking to bolster their midfield.
