Rúben Neves Transfer from Al Hilal to Newcastle United

Bailey reported on December 17 that Ruben Neves' agent had offered the 28-year-old to Newcastle as he looks to secure a return to the Premier League after nearly three years with Al-Hilal.

According to Team Talk, Ruben Neves is still being considered by Newcastle United due to PIF connections. Sources suggest a deal is only possible if it represents a really good opportunity for Newcastle. Neves is 28 and desires a Premier League return ahead of the 2026 World Cup; however, he does not fit Newcastle’s preference for younger profiles, which is aimed at lowering the squad’s average age.

Al-Hilal midfielder Ruben Neves has been linked with a move back to the Premier League and is a target for clubs like Newcastle United. A report from Talksport states that Al-Hilal have offered him a contract extension. The report also claims that if the midfielder decides not to sign a new contract with the Saudi Arabian club, they would be willing to accept offers of around £15 million for him.

Graeme Bailey reported that Ruben Neves' camp were speaking to clubs around Europe to gauge interest amid Al Hilal’s struggles to secure him with a new contract. Newcastle are described as long-term admirers of the player.

Amorim's side, along with two other Premier League sides, are considering a move for Ruben Neves. Newcastle are also tracking the player.

Ruben Neves is interested in a return to the Premier League, and Newcastle has transfer interest in him. Sources state that there have been some contacts with Premier League sides. Neves's contract with Al Hilal is nearing its end, and he could be transferred for €20m. A significant issue is that Neves currently earns as much as £410,000 a week with Al Hilal, and this amount will be too expensive for most top European clubs. Newcastle also continues to monitor his situation.

According to TBR Football, Newcastle United are seriously considering a move to bring Ruben Neves back to the Premier League. Neves is reportedly keen to return to England and currently earns £410k-a-week at Al-Hilal. Graeme Bailey told TBR Football that Neves thinks there is 'unfinished' business in England and that he had a wonderful time at Molineux. Bailey also stated that it is not a given that he moves back to England.

Portuguese international midfielder Rúben Neves has been linked with a move back to the Premier League, with Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur mentioned as other interested parties alongside Newcastle United. All three clubs were reportedly interested in the player during the summer and are being kept informed of his situation. The 28-year-old wants to return to England in January, making those clubs potential destinations. According to TBR football, Al-Hilal may look to sell him in the winter to avoid losing him on a free transfer. His contract is due to expire at the end of the season, which means he is likely to be available for a reasonable fee. According to Transfermarkt, the player has a current market value of €25.00m.
