Real Madrid closes the door on this player

The name of Rúben Neves continues to make the rounds in European transfer circles, yet without leading to any concrete developments. With his contract at Al-Hilal coming to an end, the Portuguese midfielder is eager to return to a major league, openly favoring a move to Real Madrid, where his profile has once again been put forward in recent weeks.

But on the Madrid side, the stance remains unwavering. According to Cadena SER, the management has no intention of deviating from its winter strategy. Florentino Pérez has firmly shut the door on any immediate reinforcements, preferring to maintain the current squad balance rather than give in to a tempting, albeit experienced, market opportunity.

Meanwhile, attention is shifting to England. At Manchester United, a major overhaul is looming for the summer, particularly in midfield. The futures of Casemiro and Manuel Ugarte are in question, with the latter being tracked by Ajax Amsterdam. A reshuffling of the deck is on the horizon, and Neves could well be one of its indirect beneficiaries.
